Question

Tool parameter doesn't get updated ?

I gave the default speed and feed for each tool and when I call the tools for operations like Roughing,finishing etc.. the default value doesn't get updated.

Give me some suggestions how I solve the issue.

    Maybe try to change this in your options setting,

    If you want this to automatically populate without any selections (and update if you change materials) you should use relations in your site file. Something like:

    CUT_FEED =TOOL_ROUGH_FEED_RATE

    STEP_OVER =TOOL_ROUGH_RADIAL_DEPTH-.005

    SPINDLE_SPEED=TOOL_ROUGH_SPINDLE_RPM

    STEP_DEPTH=TOOL_ROUGH_AXIAL_DEPTH

    I suppose you know.., you can set tool conditions for different materials and then use them in your manufacturing model selecting the stock material:
