I have created a 5 axis AB table machine, and its post.It works now until the real machine in workshop, but for clamp and unclamp command still didnt found, for now I manually insert it in G-code.

I saw in UDE there is CLAMP command in NX6, but it need to put the custom commmand(clamp) in POST BUiLDER, and I still finding the way.

Someone here have successfully using clamp, please tell me to e-mail:

In NX you can add the Clamp UDE and set it to Auto. Then in Post Builder look in the custom commands for the 4th and 5th axis clamp commands and edit them to output the correct codes. This should output the codes when the 4th or 5th axis moves. You can also use the UDE to manualy unclamp and clamp the axies.
