About Coordinate Systems
Coordinate systems are one of the elements of operation and NC sequence setup in Creo NC. They define the orientation of the workpiece on the machine and act as the origin (0, 0, 0) for CL data generation.
Coordinate systems used in Creo NC can belong to the design model, to the workpiece, or to any other component of the manufacturing assembly. You can use coordinate systems created prior to bringing a component into the manufacturing model, or create them in Manufacturing mode.
