This is one time a bit of work but after CV don´t ask for stock and tool informations. Than the cut for every tool in CV is displayed into a different color. The color, in this case "COLOR,225,90,11" you can change for every tool. If you use a ballmill with 3mm you put 1.5 into Vee Angle. If you use a ballmill cutter you put the half diameter of the tool in Vee Angle. In your postprocessor you change the "post file" section to (in this example the default pp): You have to prepare your postprocessor a little bit and the tools in the tool library for good working together, then all your informations about stock and tools are comming directly from cambam to cv. It also gives me rough approximations of the machining time, which is of some particular worth to me. CV gives that confirmation, and allows me to measure, view, and rotate views. I make machines, and must verify that the cuts that I wish to make are the cuts that will be made. I could not live without CV as an adjunct to CamBam - or at least, not without some good milling simulator. Each time you run a job, it will ask you for the tools - but if they are in the library, you merely select them and go on. Once you build those tools in CutViewer's library, they will be available to every job you simulate with it. Read the full changelog Machining Simulation is an application especially designed to help you get familiar with what it takes to using a CNC. CutViewer wishes to know the diameter, the length, the tip geometry, and the taper. Update milling cutter to round nose milling cutter. CamBam works with the tool diameters you've specified in each MOp, but that information - and the tip geometry - do not fully define a tool. However, the tools must be 'built' in the CutViewer tool library. If you fully define your stock in the "Machining" tab in the project view, CV won't ask for the stock.
