Using Productivity Plus in .LMD

[CastingGuru]

Hello all, is it possible to use Productivity Plus in Lathe Machine?  I have a DMG Mill with turning.  I use an .lmd file for all my tool paths(milling and lathe) as suggested by Postability.

Productivity only works inside a mmd.  I opened another .mmd in the file tree but when posting I cant get them to post together in one .mpf file.  Am I missing something?  Does anyone know a better approach?

Thank You!

No it is only available in Mill. There are Renishaw alternaitves (Inspection+?) but they are stand-alone, not "imbedded" in your Mastercam file.

Have a look at Renishaws web site, or give them a call, I have always found them to be very helpful. And they DO know their stuff.

you could possibly use modified drill cycles if you don't need all the functionality.
