Give SPINDLE-SPEED-MAX a try.

Hi,

 

Search for "Setup Sheet XML Outline and Tag Glossary" in the Mastercam help file.

You'll see what's possible to add to you report.

Give SPINDLE-SPEED-MAX a try.

Tried it doesnt work, but I see your logic.

thanks Gary

I thought it has to be here when I saw the list but alas it is not.

Hi,

 

Are you looking for SPINDLE-SPEED-MAX? It's listed in the tag glossary under the TOOL tag. (NCFILE/TOOLS/TOOL)

 

HTH,

Whoops!

Saw your previous reply, but didn't process the meaning until after I hit that POST button. (I hate when that happens.)

 

What do you mean when you say SPINDLE-SPEED-MAX doesn't work? Do you get an incorrect value or no value at all?

What is the best approach to a simple set up sheet?

Pretty picture (my Current view) with my Part Origin and a Tool call with each Max Depth called out.

 

Thanks

The SPINDLE-SPEED-MAX is listed in the mill glossary but not lathe, I was looking in lathe since it is my lathe set up sheet I am working on. Is SPINDLE-SPEED-MAX a mill only string. I want my report to display the governed speed for a particular operation.

thanks

Looks like there isn't a "Maximum spindle speed" for lathe, but I'll wait for Wendy to confirm.

When you run your Active Reports and with a little help from some C# scripting, It is possible to grab

the SPINDLE-SPEED and compare that to a defined max speed number. If that particular operation reaches

that max speed then have the report hi-lite that number in red as an example.

[Wendy Fish CNC Software]

You’re right. At this point there is no XML for maximum spindle speed. It will be addressed.

 

I don't know C# so I can't comment on ThRaSH's work-around.

 

Regards,

Wendy

Has this ever been addressed?
