[Solved] Tools Classification in the Operation Manager

Unread post by TopSolid2007 »

Hello all TopSolid'CAM users and developers and reselers...

I would like to know if is there a way to classify the tools in the operatin manager by tool type.

I found how to classify the tools individualy (Drills - Increasing or Decreasing, etc...) but what I realy want is to classify like this

1st. Carbide Drills - (Decreasing)
2nd. Mills (Decreasing)
3rd. Reamers (Increasing)
etc...

Thanks in advance for all

Hi TopSolid2007,

do you know the file ..\zmisort.par? The original of this file is in ..\v68\bin\, please copy this file in your current config folder. Here you can make some modifications.
For example, search the tools order, here you can define the Increasing or Decreasing for the tool families. In the section Tools priorities you can define order of the tools.

I hope it will help you to optimize TopSolid'Cam.
Regards
