OneCNCXR7 Mill Versions

There is an update to the Hole Feature Function

Counterbore Function

Now supports Ball Mill and Bull Mill as well as Flat End Mill
This also applies to the helix function also helix with taper function

This next graphic shows flat end mill

Important Note:

The function now supports a ball mill or a bull mill.

This function is primarily for counterbore where there is a flat bottom using an end mill.
When using these tools for a through hole rather than a counter-bore the tip radius will need to be added to the depth to remove the tip radius at the bottom of the through hole.

This OneCNCXR7 Version Update 52.03 is now available in the OneCNC update server.

We have today released OneCNCXR7 Version Update 52.02

This version has an update to the OneCNC install due to the file read import for Solidworks.

Solidworks 2018 requires the latest run-time files for Windows and this update checks and installs these files if required.

This OneCNCXR7 52.02 version updates the OneCNC tool File library directory for both the mill and lathe versions.

OneCNC now stories the tool / material library in the settings/Libraries/default  directory.

OneCNCXR7 Tool Library Files are now being stored in the Libraries Default directory.

Tool Files (also include material file) are stored in the default directory to ensure that the tool file and material is always accessible for all the users of the software and available for templates features use.

For users that wish to have tool files saved for particular reasons such as named for particular machines or particular sections of the shop you can "save library as" the required name accordingly to separate them as they will all be in the common "default" directory.

This is a "shared directory" and gives the ability for all users of the particular software to have full access to the tool and material libraries and load the file that they require.

The "default" directory is now the only place that OneCNC Mill and Lathe applications 52.02+ store the libraries.

Users that may have libraries stored in other directories can import them into the default directory.

Users can also store files as backups in other directories for safe keeping..

"Manage Tool Library" interface can be used to import the file to the "default" directory.

OneCNC products information on Tool Tool Changer and Tool and Material libraries in the online help file in the OneCNC application.
