See my post setup under the operation tab of the tool list. The NC output is what I get?

Hi @greendhg .

 

I may not be understanding your question.

It depends on the cps file, but if you turn on "Write tool list", the tool list will be written out.

Thanks kandennti,

I''ll try to make myself clear. I do have my "write tool list" checked. The problem is that it doesn't write the tool list with the same description to the NC code.

 

Example of Tool 1 description;

#1-02" face (2" FACE MILL)

 

Example of output NC code file (read out) or (program sheet);

(T1 D=2. CR=0. -2 MIN=6.7129- FaceMill)

 

The NC code file is what the operators will see in the control panel screen at the machine. Nobody will understand the description of the NC file readout. How can I get the post to output the same description?

Thank You

If you have any questions about cps, you can ask them in the Fusion 360 Manufacture forum or the HSM Post Processor forum, where they are more likely to be answered.
