Wizard

Presentation

Definition : copy of the creation attributes of a selected entity.

If you click on an element, you activate the corresponding function with the same attributes of creation.

e.g. : if you click on a yellow and thin segment, you activate the segment function and you are ready to draw a yellow and thin segment.

You can select any kind of entity, geometry or machining cycle.

Using the wizard to copy machining references

Two types of copy can be done :

1. Copy a reference then choose a strategy and a tool

2. Copy a technology (cycle + tool) and apply it on a new reference

1. Copy a reference

• Choose the machining menu needed

• Click on the Geometry selection icon

• Click on the Wizard icon

• In the machining tree, click on the line Reference of the cycle to copy ; the corresponding profile is selected and the selection icon runs green.

• Choose the cycle and the tool

Note : this procedure is particularly interesting for the rework cycles (pocket rework, finish rework and contour rework) ; the reference diameter and stock allowances are automatically read by GO2cam in the reference cycle and applied in the rework cycle ; in this case select the strategy and the tool before selecting the geometry.

2. Copy a technology

• Click on the Wizard icon

• In the machining tree, click on the Cycle to copy ; the cycle and the tool icons run green (or orange) and you are ready to select a profile where to apply this technology.
