Macro for changing skim feedrate

[nguyenthinhvt95]

Hi all you guys

I have a macro for changing the skim feed rate if the tool type is the drill.

But It takes too much time for activating all toolpath -> checking tool-type -> add to the group.

Does anybody help me to change the skim feed rate without toolpath activate?

You can change the rapid feedrate like this:

FOREACH $t IN folder('Toolpath') {
	$t.feedrate.Rapid = 3000
	}

@cfastNJWK6 Thank you for your suggestion.

Base on your idea I already applied it to my macro and it's working well.

Now, It just activates for which toolpath have "coolant == thru" and "skim feedrate > 3000". It save a lot of time instead of activating all toolpath. 

Foreach Ncp In Folder ('Group') {
Foreach item In components ($Ncp) {
if $item.coolant == "thru" {
if $item.feedrate.rapid > 3000 {
ACTIVATE Toolpath $item.name
FORM FEEDRATE
EDIT RSPEED "3000"
RESET TOOLPATH FEEDRATE
}
}
}
}
FORM ACCEPT FEEDRATE

This should be even faster

Foreach Ncp In Folder ('Group') {
Foreach item In components ($Ncp) {
if $item.coolant == "thru" and $item.feedrate.rapid > 3000 {
$item.feedrate.rapid = 3000
}
}
}
