    NX7.5 Post Builder

    I'm using NX7.5 to program a Okuma VTM200YB. On the Okuma, when using cutter comp, it needs a tool offset consisting of three offsets eg: The code would be TL=101010 if I was using tool 10, offset 10 and cuter comp offset 10. If I was using tool 12 it'd be TL=121212 etc. The problem I'm having is when I post process it only comes out with two offsets. I've tried altering it in post builder but I've had no luck thus far.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    srl,

    I have done something similar using a custom command placed in the operation start sequence. This custom command will automatically set your length and diameter offsets if you have left them at 0 while inside NX. Let me know if you need a hand or if I've made a mistake.

    the code I used was:

    global mom_tool_number
    global mom_cutcom_adjust_register
    global mom_tool_adjust_register
    global mom_cutcom_status
    global nr_tool_adjust_register
    global nr_cutcom_adjust_register
    global nr_tool_number

    set nr_tool_adjust_register $mom_tool_number

    if { $mom_tool_adjust_register != 0 } {

    set nr_tool_adjust_register $mom_tool_adjust_register

    }

    # sets your H number automatically

    if { $mom_cutcom_status == "UNDEFINED" } { return }
    if { $mom_cutcom_status == "OFF" } { return }

    set nr_cutcom_adjust_register $mom_tool_number

    if { [info exists mom_cutcom_adjust_register ] } {
    if { $mom_cutcom_adjust_register != 0 } {
    set nr_cutcom_adjust_register $mom_cutcom_adjust_register
    }
    }

    # sets your D number automatically

    set nr_tool_number [ expr (10000 * $mom_tool_number ) + ( 100 * nr_tool_adjust_register ) + ( nr_cutcom_adjust_register ) ]

    #RENAME YOUR TOOL BLOCK AS $nr_tool_number
    #PLACE COMMAND IN OPERATION START SEQUENCE
