Examples: Creating a Customized Report on a Manufacturing Process
Example 1: Tool Listing
To produce the tool listing for a manufacturing model, define your repeat regions as shown in the following illustration (enter report symbols into cells as shown).
1. Outer region
2. Inner region
3. TOOL LISTING for &asm.name
4. OPERATION
5. MACHINE
6. TOOL
7. COMMENT
8. POCKET #
9. mfg.oper.name
10. mfg.oper.workcell.name
11. mfg.oper.workcell.head.tooltbl.tool_pocket.tool_id
12. mfg.oper.workcell.head.tooltbl.tool_pocket.tool_comment
13. mfg.oper.workcell.head.tooltbl.tool_pocket.tool_position
The resulting table may look like the one shown below.
TOOL LISTING for SUPPORT_PLATE |
OPERATION | MACHINE | TOOL | COMMENT | POCKET # |
OP010 | Makino | T0001 | 1" FEM | 12 |
| | T0003 | 0.550 Std Tooling | 13 |
| | T0003 | 0.550 Std Tooling | 2 |
OP020 | Cincy | D0004 | | 5 |
| | A0010 | | 7 |
Example 2: Accessing NC Sequence Parameters
To produce a listing of all NC sequences along with selected parameters, define your repeat regions as shown in the following illustration (enter report symbols into cells as shown).
1. Outer region
2. Inner region
3. OPERATION
4. SEQUENCE NAME
5. TOOL
6. FEED
7. COOLANT
8. mfg.oper.name
9. mfg.oper.ncseq.name
10. mfg.oper.ncseq.tool_id
11. mfg.oper.ncseq.cut_feed
12. mfg.oper.ncseq.coolant_option
| To enter TOOL, FEED, and COOLANT symbols in the example above, click Report Sym on the ENTER CELL menu, then click mfg, oper, ncseq, User Defined and type tool_id, cut_feed, or coolant_option, respectively. |
The resulting table may look like the following.
OPERATION | SEQUENCE NAME | TOOL | FEED | COOLANT |
OP010 | 1: Volume | T0001 | 12 | FLOOD |
\ | 2: Cleanup | T0003 | 10 | OFF |
\ | 3: Profile | T0003 | 15 | OFF |
OP020 | 6:\ Holemaking | D0004 | 8 | FLOOD |
\ | 8:\ Countersink | A0010 | 9.5 | OFF |
