NX Tool code

NX Tool code

NX Tool code

(OP)
In masterCam we could take a flattened pattern and rap it around at a set R, It would then let us write the tool code to mill out the part off of the flat. We now have NX to do our tool code. Is there a way to have it rap the flattened patteren around a cylinder.

This is like taking a rubber stamp and raping it around your rolling pin.

If the first part is possable is it then possable to output a solid part file?

Thanks

TRR
