Copy Toolpath?

[MIKE_B]

Hi all!

 

I did a little searching and did not find alot of info with my isuue.

Why when I copy some toolpaths from 1 machine group to another my tool lenght offsets and diameter offsets change?

I want them all to stay the same. I need to proof every posted program to make sure they match! I never had to do this before X5?

Also when I go into edit a tool after coppying, my holder length and holder dia are "0"

 

Any ideas?

Thanks

Mike

Maybe try looking in the Machine group properties tool settings tab. Toolpath Configuration, uncheck(if checked) Assign tool numbers sequentially. Also, I opened an MCX3 file in X5. Imported tools to new file. (because of Rev change). Re-generated a toolpath without selecting a tool and also got the T0. After I selected tool, re-generated and all was good. deleted the T0 when I was done. Hope that helps.
