Trying to develop a cross vendor all encompassing tool numbering system. Any idea if path pilots tool database can go pst 1000? Or accommodate alpha or special ansi characters?
@Dr_Harold_Jones welcome to the Tormach forums, and thanks for posting!
The tool table doesn’t go past 1000. Users can export the tool table to a CSV file and reimport it - more information here: PathPilot Quick Tips | Export Tool Table to Comma Delimited File - YouTube
You might be better off handling your project in whatever CAM system you use. If you aren’t already aware of them, you might check out the vendor tool libraries in Fusion. I find it useful to use those tools for CAM, then only create them in PathPilot after I’ve purchased the physical tool and correctly measured it’s length offset.
I hope that helps.
