NC Data lost with a click of a button
Hi, I am familiar with at least 2 cases where the user mistakenly clicks on a command that causes data loss without a way to recover it. "Remove Machine and its programming" "Isolate machining links" Is there a way to recover the data (that I am not familiar with)? I suggest adding some notification (raise a question/confirmation) before the system executes these. Need to consider that these commands are located in commonly used areas and according to our experience, users occasionally

How to program on any native CAD with DELMIA Machining ? For instance CATIA V5
In the 3DEXPERIENCE, you have 2 possibilities to work with CATIA V5 CAD: 1/ you can import the CAD in the platform (it is not the target of this wiki) In this case the CAD is “duplicated” and you program on the 3DEXPERIENCE CAD 2/ you can connect CATIA V5 to the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform via a connector (collaborative design for CATIA V5 role in the ENOVIA portfolio) In this case you use the CATIA V5 CAD in the 3DEXPERIENCE the data is unique , there is NO duplication
Thread Milling is undesize
I am trying to mill M5 x 0.8 internal threads. To get the threads large enough to pass a M5 bolt, I have to set the diameter to 7.0 mm. It is possible I have something in the tool geometry wrong. The tool is a single edge (as opposed to a comb type) cutter with 4mm cutting diameter and a 2.9mm shank relief. Below is the geometry I have set. Here are the cutting parameters I had to use to get the diameter correct. I am not sure why I need to enter 7mm. The best idea I have is that the entry

Changing the size of the stock
Hi community, I am machining in NC Shop Floor Programmer. I added a rectangular stock. Maybe a stupid question. But I can't find it. How can I change the size of the stock? Do I need to add a new stock? Or can I edit the original stock? Best regards Petr
Suggestion for NC output panel
It would be really handy to have a "Go to folder" button somewhere in this panel so you can click it and go to the folder where the output was saved. When someone (like me) has an "I forgot to set [whatever parameter]" and need to quickly repost and send the code, that button would save drilling down in Windows Explorer several times and about a gazillion extra clicks. Just a thought.
Copies of part in Shop Floor Programmer
Is there any way to make a copy of a part instead of instantiating it in Solidworks and bringing in a multi-body part? I have a bracket that I need to make multiples of and nest them into a single piece of stock, and it would seem there may be a way to do this in the CAM part instead of making a separate model just for machining. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Preferred position and change of rotary axis configuration
Hi community, When creating a machine, you can set the priority of the rotary axes (e.g., Default, Minus, or Plus). This option is very convenient, but it would be much more interesting to be able to insert the option to position the machine in Minus or Plus before machining operation, depending on machining or collision requirements. Normally, an APT word is inserted (e.g., MODE/BAXIS,PLUS or MODE/BAXIS,MINUS, or to manage the C-axis singularity, ROTATE/CAXIS,ON,180...) and the PostProcessor

tool support for sweeping operations
Hello; One of our customers makes molding dies. -We previously used CATIA V5 and solved this issue in CATIA V5 by using user representation. Now, what I want to ask is that we want to do this without using representation in V6 because it is a special tool and we cannot download it from any site. My suggestion is to add a T-slot to the sweeping operation and provide a chamfer support to sharpen the tool's lower edge and upper edge. @NY @NK @EK @AC

Facing
Hello, I am looking for a solution to a problem that occurs during face milling with an insert-type cutter. A tool of this design cannot enter the material with a vertical plunge movement, because this causes collisions between the cutter body (where there are no cutting inserts) and the workpiece material. Despite enabling the collision avoidance option, toolpaths are still generated with colliding movements. I would expect the toolpaths to be trimmed and arranged in such a way that machining
Reappearing Stock Model
If I model the raw stock in Solidworks and import it as part of the assembly, then make copies of the assembly for further ops, every time I switch to a different op, or to the tree, or back to the activities view, that solid unhides itself in each copy of the NC assembly. Is there any way to convince these solids to stay hidden unless I, as the user, unhide them? Many thanks.

Specified time for tool changes
The "Simulation time" includes the "Specified time" for tool changes, which is set to a default of 5 seconds. This time can be modified for each tool change via "Advanced edit," but this is an unnecessary repetitive task. The default "Specified time" for tool changes should be a machine property, configurable during machine setup, similar to the "Rapid feedrate."
Nesting Process Stock Reuse

Machining Wizard Disappears. How to re-enable it?
When I click "switch to edit mode" on a part, the machining wizard goes away and I am unable to re-enable it. Even if the close the current manufacturing cell and create a new one, the wizard is no longer accessible. Please advise on how to re-enable the wizard (I assume this would be exiting edit mode??) without having to close and restart the app. "Switch to edit mode" Wizard is gone.
What is required to do during this step of the wizard?
When I import a machine using the "Import and Mount Resources", I got my library and click on my NC Machine so it get's added the current manufacturing cell. It then takes me to this screen with informational popup that says "Click any of the icons in the context toolbars or select resource rom the PPR tree or from viewer" -- Can someone please explain to me what this means? What do I need to select and why is it asking me this? Thanks!
Powercopy - To create Tabs
A PowerCopy is a set of features (geometric elements, formulas, constraints and so forth) that are grouped in order to be used in a different context, and presenting the ability to be re-specified according to the context when pasted. This PowerCopy captures the design intent and know-how of the designer thus enabling greater reusability and efficiency. This page aims to explain how this capability can be leveraged in DELMIA Machining. In 5-Axis machining the stock material often serves as the
Correct Large Angular Variation
One common problem in five axis machining is that in some cases it´s not possible to drive the tool along the programmed trajectory without changing the machine configuration along the toolpath. Usually this causes a large angular variation in one of the rotational axes of the machine. These movements can cause damage to the part and/or machine if not detected and corrected. This page aims to explain how DELMIA Machining can help to detect and avoid this kind of issue. Scenario: In this example

Measurement tool
Hello everyone, I don't know if this is the right post for this, but for programming I often use the measurement tool, especially to measure angles between surfaces. I have a problem when I want to measure an angle between a hole (its axis) and a surface. As shown in the following image, I get different values for each measurement, and never the correct one here: 90 degrees. It seems to be between an axis and a plane (I didn't have this problem in V5). Is this a setting to be made? Does
Can an HVAF machine be programmed using additive manufacturing roles?
I need to program an HVAF (High Velocity Air Fuel) machine, specifically a Uniquecoat M4 system that is mounted on an ABB robotic arm. While exploring options, I came across the Material Deposition app, and I would like to know whether it is possible to use this app to program the HVAF machine. My main goal is to understand if the Material Deposition app can support HVAF processes in terms of motion planning, path generation, and process parameter control, given that this machine is used for
Getting a part file into laser and water jet cutting
I'm new to 3D Experience, I know Solidworks well. I watched a video on Shop Floor Machining and saw how to import a part into it, so I thought it would work the same in Laser and Water Jet cutting. When I try to move the file into the working area, it brings up a search box and from there, nothing happens. It just trys to search for a file someplace. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Chris Lane
