NX 6 CAM - how to get Zmin from each one operation/program ?

[stevethb]

I`m wondering if there is any unigraphics`s option to get it automatically ? without any intervention to postprocessor code.

What do you mean by "automatically" getting the Z min?

You can list the tool path and look at the Z values.

You can use the tool path verify and verify the lowest Z value very quickly.

If you are looking for something else than you will need to customize the post or create an NX open program to present that value to you.

I know that I can quickly check Z values by verify the tool path, but when You got for example 10 programs in which one about 5 operation it takes a few minutes to check it, especially when sometimes displaying tool path also takes a several seconds.

I`m looking a different way to get this value.
