I am trying to find a way to set-up my stock (workpiece) for multiple stations in a manufacturing file. The way I have been doing this is once I have all of my material removals completed for the first station I save my workpiece as a .stp and then remake it into a .prt so there are no Assembly Cuts that Vericut can suppress. I tried using a family table and it works great untill I go to run it thru vericut. It suppresses everything, therefore my Station 2 stock is a block just like Station 1. I want station 2 to keep the features that it inherited from station 1. The problem with using the .stp file method is that if I go back and change something on Station 1 its a long process to update all of the other stations. We do alot of horizontal work so i could have up to 6 or more stations on one tombstone.
I am using Creo 2 - M030
