Project Specific Toolfiles
I have had this idea for several years. When a project is created the Advanced Project Library is created which is great. It would be nice if this also included the toolfile. Here is my reasoning behind this.
I have a project where i need to modify several of the tool in the lineup, different profiles, speeds and feed rates. I realize that I could create an additional processing station to for this task but it would be possible to have an ever increasing list of processing stations that for the most part were never used and just in the way. I would rather have the option upon creating a project to select a toolfile and then the option to modify it. This toolfile would remain in the project so a year later when I have to remake parts for said project I can verify the tool string, inform the operator of the required tool line up and all my settings are intact. This would not create additional processing station clutter. Don't get me wrong what we have is working but I think it could be improved upon. Does anyone agree? Just a little bit?
