Hallo,

Is there a possibility to set up the NX 9 turning CAM to display X coordinate in a diameter measure not the radius?

Verify toolpath function display the X coordinate as a radius measure - i want to display as a diameter.

(I already changed similar setting in the postprocessor but cannot find this setting in the NX)



thank you for help.
 
Hi,

It is not possible to set NX to display diameter values. The values you seen in Verify_Tool_Path function is the CLS data with respect to the co-ordinate system, you cannot apply any multiplication factor to it.
