I'm slowly working my way through constructing a post processor for my new turning centre using the techniques suggested on the siemens PLM forum. So far I've created an XZC mill as the master and linked a simple turn and an xhead mill as the slaves. The turn post has been pretty straightforward...
Using post builder I'm trying to develop the post processor(s) for our new Doosan Puma2600Y - single spindle, single turret, Y axis lathe. I understand the concept of linking post processors and this article

Currently canned cycles aren't outputting the change in fixture offset, where's the correct place to insert the $mom_fixture_offset_value to fix the problem.
Using NX 8.5.0.23 and Post builder 8.5.0
I'm using NX8.5 and I'd like to set up various tool carriers pre loaded with the appropriate tools. After adding the required tools to the carrier -> MB3 the tool carrier in the operations navigator -> object but do not get a template setting option.
I've also tried start -> tools -> operation...
I'm looking to change the displayed decimal places for dimensions whilst sketching etc in NX8. During my searches on this forum I know I can MB3 -> style for individual existing dimensions and I've gone in to File -> utilities -> customer defaults -> drafting but I'd like all existing and future...
If I'm having to mirror both I & J to get correct orientation for circular output should I be changing the IJK definition from vector, arc center to start to maybe vector, arc start to center?
Also I'd like to define a Y coordinate for the end of program sequence to send the table forward for...
So I'm trying to clean up a couple of corners on a pretty easy profiling operation, straightforward enough but each time I try the entire part is profiled with the new smaller end mill.
I insert -> operation -> mill_planar -> planar profile and select a 10mm end mill for the tool. I then go to...
Hi, I've been using NX8 for a couple of months and whilst I'm really enjoying the level of explicit control I'm struggling with a few things I consider to be fairly basic. Fixture offsets is one of them. I've tried insert -> geometry -> MCS and allocated a fixture number but it's not showing up...
