What is the best procedure for creating a new sequence of the same part for a different machine. What if i have a millturn part and want to only mill the milling cycles on a Milling machine and want to only turn the turn cycles on a lathe. What if i have a complete part program on a 4 axis milling machine and want to reuse the sequence cycles on a 5 axis miling machine and vice versa. Ray |

| That is not an easy question to answer. You would have to create a new sequence with the machine you want to use. Then copy the individual toolpaths you would like to keep from the original sequence. I hold the control key down and drag the cycles down from the original sequence. Now for the other jar of worms. Some toolpaths may need to have the index cycle in place before you copy them into the new sequence. If your original index is accepted by your new machine then you can copy the entire section of toolpath. Another option would be to do a "save as" and modify the original sequence. |
