thanks

HI,
I was looking for the best way to program toolpaths for a 4-axis horizontal mill with a B-axis rotary table in NX6. What I am trying to do is fairly basic: mill the first face with planar operations then rotate the table CCLW 90 degrees and proceed to milling the second face with planar...
