In order to increase automation, it is necessary to assign machine and clampable blank geometries to the fixtures as clearly as possible.
To define these, open the Settings -> Machining... -> Fixtures menu item.

|
Assign the machine to the selected fixture.
Only available with the “Multi machine” option.
|
Assign the blank geometries to the selected fixture.
|
Presetting for the machine, fixtures, and blank geometry. If the settings are unambiguous, loading a blank automatically loads the machine with the appropriate fixture.
|
|
Use the additional settings to define further fixture-dependent parameters.

|
Part tilting:
Set the tilting axis for automatic tilting. (See also “Automatic tilting”)
|
Calculation:
Calculate in NC coordinates (necessary for Roland DWX-52DC and Calculation Merge).
Tool change optimization – specific setting options for tool change-optimized calculation.
Enable open fixture functionality - With open fixtures (C-clamp), the option must be activated to use the corresponding functionality.
|
Navigation:
Rotation of the view over the selected axis.
Ignore for zoom: If this option is activated, the Zoom All function will fit the stock independently of the holder in the graphics window.
|
Connector behavior:
“Yes” if connectors are calculated for several parts with overlapping milling area boundaries, traverses are placed between the parts.
|
Object nesting:
Option for setting automatic part nesting. Automatic nesting if you set “Use automatic nesting” to “Yes.” You can set the nesting direction.
