Angled Holes

[john_mccarron]

Hello, at work I use Gibbs version 8x (It has some kind of Pro AXYZ 5 Axis thing with it), but nobody there knows how to use it beyond simple contouring etc... Pretty much all of the parts that I run have angled holes, but nobody knows how to use Gibbs to program them. As it is now, we just put it on the 5th axis and program it manually with a lot of eyeballing. I've been using gibbs as a CAD program to eliminate the eyeballing, but since I have to program new parts every night, I'd like to streamline the whole process and actually program those holes with gibbs. Any help or pointing me in the right direction would be appreciated. Thanks.

Well first I set my machine documents on 5th axis and set the proper axis setup then I create diffrent cs's,and align each side I machine. I attached a generic sample

Thanks. I need play around with it, but at least I have a place to start now.
