Prismatic Machining
(PG1) - P1, (PMG, MPM) - P2

General Issues

Probing The “Cycle OFF” NC Instruction has been specialized for axial, probing, and for lathe (machining operations generate respectively NC_AXIAL_CYCLE_OFF, NC_PROBING_CYCLE_OFF and NC_LATHE_CYCLE_OFF, by default they are all associated to CYCLE/OFF in the PPTable). It allows you to define a specific CYCLE OFF in the PPTable, for instance for Probing.

Important: If you have redefined the NC_CYCLE_OFF in the current PPTable, you must redefine the NC_AXIAL_CYCLE_OFF, NC_LATHE_CYCLE_OFF and NC_PROBING_CYCLE_OFF accordingly in the PPTable to avoid any behavior change.

Intermediate Stock Management For a given machining operation, it is now possible to enable/disable the intermediate stock output computation, to enable/disable the use of the input intermediate stock in the toolpath computation. It brings flexibility and allows you to optimize your process by inhibiting the intermediate stock computation, for instance when you known it is not relevant for subsequent operations.

On top of this new option, the performance of the intermediate stock management has been largely improved.
