copy geometry and toolpath

[danfec]

When I create a part with toolpaths, can I copy both the geometry and the toolpath at the same time so if I have to create 50 parts on a 4' x 8' sheet I do not have to recreate the toolpath for each parts.

 

Thanks

right click on the operation then tollpath / transform.

then you can miror translate or rotate

not sure exactly what you have to click cause not in front but try to find copy original operation and don't post original (if you post it you will do twice the first one)

 

BTW ou est tu du Quebec??

Not sure that I understand you correctly. You could save the toolpath as geometry in the Backplot Display screen. You could import operations with geometry through job set up. But from what it sounds like, you need to transform your operations.

Toolpath, next menu, transform then you select your toolpaths that you want to copy and click on create new operations and geometry, then switch to translate page and give it a dimension you want to translate and which direction etc... good function
