    V23 run time estimate?

    I just upgraded to v23 pro from V21,

    Is there a way in V23 to do a run-time estimate? i can't seem to find it if there is.

    thanks for any help,

    run time

    post your code and run a simulation in predator editor.Make sure your post has a predator header .


    O6270
    (BEGIN PREDATOR NC HEADER)
    (MACH_FILE=3AXVMILL.MCH)
    (MTOOL T1 S1 D4. H5. DIAM_OFFSET 1 = 2.)
    (MTOOL T2 S1 D.5 H5. DIAM_OFFSET 2 = .25)
    (MTOOL T3 S1 D.75 H5. DIAM_OFFSET 3 = .375)
    (MTOOL T4 S1 D.318 H5. DIAM_OFFSET 4 = .159)
    (MTOOL T5 S1 D.375 H5. DIAM_OFFSET 5 = .1875)
    (MTOOL T6 S1 D.406 H5. DIAM_OFFSET 6 = .203)
    (MTOOL T7 S1 D.375 H5. DIAM_OFFSET 7 = .1875)
    (SBOX X-.3 Y-1.75 Z-1. L7.66 W1.75 H1.)
    (END PREDATOR NC HEADER)

    v23 machining time estimate

    1234567,
    thanks for the reply,
    maybe I missed something or maybe I worded my question poorly,
    I am looking to see if there is a way to estimate the machining time with V23.

    I can post, I can simulate, but I can't see anywhere that gives me the time for the machining.

    Thanks,
    Cutmore

    Thanks for the screen shot,
    It doesn't look like I have the ability to backplot under the predator editor. i looked under the lisence menu and there are no checks there.
    I will have to call bobcad to check that out I guess.

    Thanks,
