In this webinar, I will be explaining and demonstrating the new feature of “simplified tool holder creation” in NX1980. Programmers often have the task of getting tool holders models into in their programming environment to ensure there are not any clearance issues. Doing this work takes time and must be accurate. With the tool holder import wizard time spent managing the tool holder database will be drastically reduced. The goal of this webinar is to familiarize NX CAM users with the new tool that easily imports tool holders into the tooling library.
