About XML Export and Import of Manufacturing Process Data
Creo NC enables you to store the manufacturing process data in XML format and then import it into the same or a different model. You can also use the XML templates to create manufacturing annotations in the reference part model. The manufacturing data that can be imported includes operations, workcells, tooling, and NC sequences. During the import procedure the references get assigned by their names If some of the references are missing when you import an NC sequence, the NC sequence is created as incomplete. You can then redefine the NC sequence and specify the missing references.
You can create XML templates of the following data:
• Entire manufacturing process
• One or more workcells
• One or more operations
• One or more NC steps
