Hello,
I work for a company with about 50 CNC machine tools and we're trying to standardize the manner in which we control our CNC programs. I'm basically limited to a 4-digit machine program number when it is on the CNC control at the machine itself, but in some cases, I can assign another filename on our servers.
Does anyone have any advice on how I can proceed?
Considerations:
1. Program numbers will differ from machine to machine. That is, machine program 123 is not the same on one machine as it is on another. At least it doesn't have to be.
2. Manufacturing routers. I would love to give the operator a note on the routing sequence of what program number to use. But this will lock me into using that number going forward.
Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks!
