CNC Machinists

Hi

I do not know NX CAM, but i work in Gibbs cam, HSM and Fusion360. They support storage machining proces and tool with feed and speed parameters. In Gibbs cam this is solved very simple, you save machining proces in to the library, which contain tool, feed and speed. HSM and Fusion solve this problem almost the same, but you save tool which have write feed and speed.

In NX if You use tool libraries and automatic feed and speed, You choose milling method (rough, finish) and tool. NX will automatically adds Ae and Ap and calculates tool movements and ads speed and feeds values. So seems to me that You have same situation. But problem to me is that if I do not like NX added Ae and Ap and change it all feed and speed values are not suitable anymore. So whats the point of library? Whats the point of library where You can define only one option of speed and feed to tool?

Ok I understand, is not very good. I using ever tool of my library on specific machining, material and parameter feed and speed are same. For example when I using face mill so spindle speed and feed s=1000ot/min-1 F= 1800mm/min are also at Ap 0,5mm Ae 50% or Ap 0,8mm Ae 35% for rouging proces and material tool steel M238 DIN1.2738 EN 40CrMnNiMo8-6-4 without cooling. But for finishing I have save same tool with the other parameters. I have define speed and feed per tooth, max cutting Ap but Ae I changing for face mill or endmill speed, feed per tooth, max Ap , max Ae and Hm (Hm is feed angle). When I changing Ap or Ae in process window so parameters speed and feed are without change. I can not help you solve your problem. You try contact your softver support.
