    CAM: Automate "Coolant on" on new operations

    But this does not solve my problem. Everytime I open a new project, I have to define coolant and other events for every tool I import from library. Is it a practise to have all your tools in the template? This aint going to work for me, because I have some 500 tools in the workshop.

    CAM: Automate "Coolant on" on new operations

    Iklo: This is interesting. Please show me how you did this. Is it possible that: you create a new event - cavity mill for example wich has coolant on active by default? Is it possible to assign the coolant thru option to a specific tool that allow you to have this option? Thank you!

    open post processed file with custom editor

    I dont need to edit output. I want to send it to the FTP site and add it in CIMCOEdit NC base. That is why i need external program - just to speed things up. Can this be done in Postbuilder? How? I didnt find any settings like this. Should it be coded in TCL?
