Manufacturing (CAM)

Hi,I need to get the cutter diameter in the g-post. I see the CUTTER command in CL-file but it is commented like  $$-> CUTTER / 10.000000.There is an Article CS212554, but I have no access to eSupport yet.   Document DetailsTitle How to output CUTTER command to the CL-file in Creo Parametric, without the comment marking ($$) in front of it DescriptionIs there a setting that allows to output the cutter diameter to the *.ncl file as a command instead of a commentHow to get a real CUTTER command in the CL-file, i.e. without the comment marking ($$) in front of it? The line $$-> CUTTER / 10.000000 follows the LOADTL command in CLDATAApplies ToCreo Parametric all versionsPro/MANUFACTURINGCauseWhere is the rest of the document?This is a partial view of the Article. Click for full details on Article CS212554.ResolutionIs anybody able tell me solution?Thanks,

Hi,How can I change the default accuracy of the screws to four digits?I have already change the values in  "\EMX80_M021_PT\configuration\bore_screw.cfg"   but inserting the screws these values are rounded up.

dear friends;we are using creo 3 for cam programming , in roughing program although I mentioned ramp angle as 5 degree /less than 90 , cutter directly plunging on the material with out taking any ramp, does any one know the reason ? I am using volume and window .

For example, I would like "COORDINATE_OUTPUT" to default to SEQUENCE_SYS instead of the current MACHINE_SYS every time I make a new tool path.Also, is there a way to custom populate the quick parameter options under the "parameter" tab?  Common used parameters such as FIXT_OFFSET_REG used to set your G54-59, should be readily available, and I would not have to open the advanced parameter to access it.  Any way to do this?

I've frequently seen old table saws, radial arm saws, and other equipment which have brass nuts on their (presumably not-stainless) steel arbor shafts.  Besides reduced likelihood of galling, are there other reasons brass might be spec'd?  Preventing wear on arbor?

So I have a quick questions... I know you can have multiple builds of Creo on a single machine, but can you share files between those builds?   We are currently on Creo 3.0 M100 and need to upgrade to M120 to resolve a couple issues. In doing so, we will need to delete and create new workspaces within Windchill. I have a couple users who have large projects that aren't really on the server yet, or going to be on Windchill in multiple workspaces, so it would be a great help if I could leave them on M100 for a bit and upgrade the rest to M120.   Not sure if this will work or not, just looking for some input. Thanks

I am sure this information is somewhere but I can't find it. Changes for lots of other things but not CAM.Josh

Creo Parametric Help CenterI hope a lot of effort was put into refinement, because the new features don't look all that exciting.Josh

Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening.I've purchased and installed Creo 3.0. I've also purchased Creo N/C complete machining.Is there a good quick start manual explaining which directory the config.pro should be placed and is there suggested settings for standardmodeling and manufacturing?I should have copied a config.pro from a previous employer.Thank you,Jay.This thread is inactive and closed by the PTC Community Management Team.

I am a student at the local community college, and I was wondering what computers were being used for your Creo industry and classroom usage.  Any help would be appreciated.  If you can help, I am looking for the CPU, RAM, Graphics Card, and SSD or HD information.  What would you recommend for a good machine for college replacement and why.  They are looking at replacing the current systems.All help will be appreciated.

I was shown a toolpath today, created in MasteCAM, that oscillates in z with options to create either a sine wave or peaked path. In this case it was being used to cut a laminate and avoid heating up the tool so much. Other than sketching the path, is there any way to create this in Creo?Josh This thread is inactive and closed by the PTC Community Management Team.

Had some free time to work on this today.  Source linkI created a curve by equation and used that to drive a trajectory milling sequence for some long slots I needed to mill.here is the equation I used to create this curve./* ENTER TOOL STEP OVERSO = 0.05/* EMPIRICAL VALUE TO CORRECT SHAPE ERRORSF = 0.0175/* ENTER PROFILE ALLOWANCE (STOCK)PA = 0.005/* ENTER TOOL CUTTER DIAMETERCD = .3937/* ENTER SLOT WIDTHSW = 0.811977/* ENTER NUMBER OF REVOLUTIONSN = 100A = ( ( SO * SF ) / 3.141592654 ) / 2B = ( ( SW - ( 2 * PA ) ) - CD ) / 2x = ( A * ( t * N * 360 )) - ( B * sin ( t * N * 360 ) )y = ( B * cos ( t * N * 360 ))z = 0I don't understand what the shape error value is about but it seems to work for this application.  Just thought i should share this with everyone in case they wanted to use it or improve it This thread is inactive and closed by the PTC Community Management Team.
