I'm changing sides of the country soon. The majority of my experience is in UG/NX. No Catia, how difficult is the transition? I.E. can I lie and get up to speed in a couple weeks? Franklin UG 10,13 & 18 NX 1,2,4,6,11,12,1899 & 2206 NCL502 (yep I love Sequential Mill)

Thanks for the reply. I need GPM for a special project (repost an old part). I'll continue to look. Franklin UG 10,13 & 18 NX 1,2,4,6,11,12,1899 & 2206 NCL502 (yep I love Sequential Mill)

Hi Y'all ( I was going to say guys, but in our current world that would offend some one... so y'all it is.) I once saw a post explaining how to run GPM (32 bit) in newer versions after support died, you had to create a folder, move the files for GPM there, create a system environment variable...

OK, that's a mouth full. actually 2 problems. I'm posting it here cause GTAC isn't helpful, getting the "company line" type answers. Problem 1: NX V2206. Operations inside an program group were reordered by NX. Maybe related to instanced toolpaths as the group contained both regular operation...

Hey Rob, We use NX for all manufacturing, design to Cam. The cam can do a lot but in some things small systems like Mastercam and conFusion360 will humble it. One thing that is a pain is the developers (here known as propeller heads) love to change the interface without really adding something...

Guys, MULTI_AXIS_ROUGHING NX2206 Has anyone used this operation? A co-worker and myself have tried it, the best description of the result is "herding cats is easier". I down loaded and played with the demo part, same result difficult to control. Anyone want to share a success story...

Guys, Thank you for all your input. I like the idea of making the machines themselves the process that is certified. But as was also pointed out it is above my paygrade. I'm a lowly NX driver (contractor no less) and need to keep my focus on the numbers as in cartesian coordinate numbers...

WKTaylor, rb1957, your answers are at opposite ends of the spectrum. WK, can you point me toward a section of the AS9100 for me review? Please... Franklin UG 10,13 & 18 NX 1,2,4,6,11,12,1899 & 2206 NCL502 (yep I love Sequential Mill)

Hello all. I work at an aerospace company, we have (8) five axis Mitsui milling machines that are more or less the same. Pivot geometry is exactly the same, axis travel lengths vary. They all run on 31i Fanuc controls. Each machine is on a 90 day calibration schedule. Our quality department has...

Gentleman, I am finding a need for driving special tools (such as Huele COFA deburr tools) more and more. I would like to create a routine that allows me (us) to define motion in the tool axis, preferably as variables, be able to pick multiple points to do the repetitive motion. Kind of like a...

I have yet another question, the 2206.8700 has two options, one of which is "batch". What is the difference between the two? Franklin UG 10,13 & 18 NX 1,2,4,6,11,12 & 1899 NCL502 (yep I love Sequential Mill)

cowski. how does the versioning work? From the siemens site I see 2216 is the latest. I'm guessing that was introduced in January? So there are probably releases in between 2206 and 2216. Would you know the last release in the 2206 series? Franklin UG 10,13 & 18 NX 1,2,4,6,11,12 & 1899...

NX users, it appears I'm the company wind dummy (first off the ground) here at my company with Version 2206. Moving from 1899. Is 2206 stable or are you finding it buggy? Thanks Franklin UG 10,13 & 18 NX 1,2,4,6,11,12 & 1899 NCL502 (yep I love Sequential Mill)

Hi all, I'm looking for fellow users of the NCT (NC [file] Transformation) Software. This software transforms the actual machine code (G code) based on input from probed features on the machine. The software is very powerful but, yes a but, the documentation is lacking. I posted s similar...

Dawson 70, they seem to have removed the engage - retract options from the non-cutting menu also(fixed axis contour), would you happen to have a fix for that also? After some searching and general wondering about I found the answer. Siemens added "override with smooth connections" some where...

Hi Dawson70, My fix was littering my desktop with template parts from version 12. I just downloaded your pdf, I like it much better, thank you. Franklin UG 10,13 & 18 NX 1,2,4,6,11,12 & 1899 NCL502 (yep I love Sequential Mill)

first of what looks like an ever growing list. where did boundary drive method go in fixed axis contouring? v1899 Franklin UG 10,13 & 18 NX 1,2,4,6,11,12 & 1899 NCL502 (yep I love Sequential Mill)

Guys, thank you for the help. BUT. I changed the load options from "Minimally load - light weight display" to "partially load", that fixed 95% of the display issue. The balance was improved by the facet scale setting under performance/accuracy/advanced, I changed from part to view. We use...

Thanks Mr. "Cowski" for the reply. I asked around and one of designers had previously solved the problem. I changed to partially loaded in load options and view in preferences/visualization/performance/accuracy/advanced. Good enough for my needs (CNC programming) Thanks again for taking the...

Before I call for help.... I have a round part that fits in a meter sized cube. Some of it are displayed are linear sections, in V12 "update display" fixed the problem, but not in 1899. (This smells of millennial meddling.) Any suggestions? Regards, Frank Franklin UG 10,13 & 18 NX...
