Is there a way to estimate a process time for a Milling operation? I.E. I programm a part with three operations, can I query the system for a cycle time of a given process?

Thanks

There is a routine available from UGS that will put the time for each o in your posted output file.

There is a custom command in Post Builder that you place at the "end of program" event for program run time. Just post the operations you want to see. The other way is to output an lpt file (an option using gpm or ugpost)which will also show the total time plus show it by tool.
