Wieber’s lead programmer contributed to the standardization of manufacturing processes by taking the time to set up tool libraries that match materials and the tools used to cut them with optimal feeds and speeds. So now the operators have visuals along with very concise instructions and a tool list-everything they need to know to set up and run a part.” They combined them to give us a custom sheet that could be quickly generated from within Mastercam. ShopWare gave us samples of a half dozen different setup sheets, and we told them what we liked or didn’t about each. “Initially, we were just doing a screenshot and writing notes on it.
“Once we started programming offline, we needed a way for the programmer to communicate his intentions to the operator,” Mr. This makes it possible to make simple modifications to the program at the machine and keep work flowing. The first involved customizing the standard postprocessor to ensure that all the code at the machine is presented cleanly in the preferred order, so the G and M codes are easy to read, understand and edit at the machine if necessary. Wieber’s Mastercam reseller, ShopWare Inc., made two significant contributions to communications and workflow.
