Tool Files for download

[Christopher2525]

I have to build a complete tool library for all of the parts we run from scratch. The last place I worked, the programmer was really on top fo keeping our library up to date with all the tools we used, this place I am starting from scratch. I would really not like to have to draw every tool holder and insert that isn't already in the Mastercam "approved" catalog. Is there some resource where I can download some user created tool drawings to help me quicken this process.

 

 

for example, what would you do for an Iscar WTSR 0570 H14 thread mill

I'm not sure about other manufacturers, but Sandvik Coromant has both STP files and DXF files of lathe and mill tooling. I've used the STEP files for Vericut, and they work a treat.

Why would you have to DRAW any tool. If its a custom tool OK but everything else doesn't need to be drawn.
