NX Multithreading
NX Multithreading
(OP)
Just a simple question - are there any efforts to implement multithreading for multiple cores into NXCAM in the future?
I recognized that many cam suppliers are introducing those higher performance technologies into their software like Delcam, Mastercam, WorkNC and so on.
Anybody working on this item in the development department or any information about plans to do so, when can we expect it??

RE: NX Multithreading
Many times these improvements come based on the requests of the largest (hence the most requested items) installed bases. Example: a large aircraft or auto manufacturer is often tasked with updating hundreds if not thousands of operations as they migrate to new versions of NX or do special automated batch rev changes. For them, it's all about batch processing. Assign multiple ops to multiple cores. Also, I think from a coding aspect, it's the first step to get cam into multi-threading without re-writing major cam code.
Now for the average Joe (like myself), I generate an operation then confirm it's correct. If not, I adjust and try again. Most times I can't move forward till I've proved that operation. It's at rare day that I'm tasked with just generating lots of operations without going through them. But like I said, the large shops need all the batch power they can get. I'd love to see the single Cavity Mill op given multi-threading though.
