NX6 Sheet Metal Punch
NX6 Sheet Metal Punch
(OP)
Hello,
I'm trying to integrate NX6 with our manufacturing department here. I'm having trouble finding documentation relating to punching out sheet metal parts.
Does anyone here use NX6 to generate code for punched out sheet metal parts?
Is it possible to develop an NX6 post processor for this process?
Thanks,
Frank

Actually I would have hoped NX machining by now has punching modules but somebody other than myself would be required to comment on the product availability as I haven't dealt with that area in some time.

I can't imagine that everyone manually codes their sheet metal punch press now... Do they?

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

Thats exactly what I was looking for. Does Siemens have any documentation about how to code a post processor in this situation?
Thanks,
