Tool Library, tool crib management

[nickz]

Is anyone by chance using any other software for their tools, or know of any tool crib (tool management software) that will interface with Mastercam? Or are most MC users relying completely on Mastercam's tool library? This is something that has been haunting me for the past 3 years, since V6.

The reason I ask this is that I would like to control an inventory of tools and a library all in one, instead of 3 different systems.

Nick,

We use Extreme DNC and they have a product that will print out a bar coded tool list. It can work with M/C when set up. The tool crib scans the list and it tells the attendant what tools to pull.
