Hi
Im using NX6 my problem is that I need to output drilling paths as POLAR moves, is there any way of doing that from within NX
Many thanks

RE: polar drilling

You have to program your drilling operations as normal and under Objects=> Start Events select the Set Polar UDE and set to on. You may have to make changes in your post depending on you machine/controller.
