I have a component and multiple setups/operations for that component.

 

I now want to mill multiple versions of that component/body... using identical operations... but I want to run each operation on ALL components/bodies followed by the next op, etc (instead of running the entire sequence on 1 component/body, then the next, then the next etc. This will cut down on the number of tool changes I'll have to do. It would save vast amounts of time if I could simply copy the component WITH all the associated ops and selected geometry. Is this possible?

Otherwise, I have to manually select geometry on each and every body...

Thanks!

Hello,

You can do whatever you want. You can upload your data if you'd like. I can show you how to do it.

You can use Patterns, just like in the design workspace, assuming your parts will be laid out in a known configuration. You can even order them to minimise tool changes.
