About This File
This step-by-step tutorial teaches you how to create a tool database in Mastercam X8’s Tool Manager.
We begin by creating and editing a new cutting tool and holder. From there, we show you how to correctly assemble them and make further edits. Other topics include how to import one tool or an entire Mastercam library into the new database. As well you will learn how to import a .dxf tool file (we use examples from Iscar and Sandvik) and then make any geometry modifications necessary to match Mastercam requirements.
Please note: a full seat of Mastercam is required to complete a section of this book. While the included Home Learning Edition does not support .dxf file imports, it can be used for everything else.
