Release Notes - 09.05.2021
Tool management/handling
- Additional tool information
For an improved overview, general tool information is also displayed in the side "pop-up menu" of the individual tool. This avoids switching between multiple pages. - Improved error descriptions
Some error messages in connection with "Link tool to a machine" have been enriched with additional information. This makes it easier to search for the cause of the error. E.g. machine memory (tool list) full - Enrichment of technical data Hoffmann article
During a CAM import Connected Manufacturing checks the individual components for Hoffmann articles and enriches them with additional technical information. This recognition process has been improved with this update.
Order management
- Exchange of NC programs
Currently, it is not possible to exchange NC programs for an operation that has already been started. A cumbersome creation of a new operation was necessary until now. With the update you now have the possibility to exchange NC programs and send them to the machine tool again. To do this, edit a paused operation and add the new NC programs. These can then be sent to the machine.
Note: Exchange can take place during a paused operation. For safety reasons, make sure that the machine tool is not in machining. - Task with attachments
With the update, files (e.g. drawings) can now be attached to a working task and are available at any time. - Attachments for orders
With this update, files (e.g. delivery bills) can now be attached to an order and are thus available at any time. - Duplicate order number
Already in the last update a small adjustment was made here. Now, when entering an order number, it is completely checked whether this has already been assigned. - Workpiece blank dimensions
When creating a part, the dimensions can now also be stored. - Orders progress
The order overview is now enriched with a progress bar and an overview of completed operations. - Order position
When creating parts, they can be assigned a corresponding position number. The default setting is in steps of 10.
Bugs
- Tool24 interface
Previously it was only possible to reserve Tool24 items if there was at least one existing reservation in the system. This is now fixed, a reservation is possible at any time.
Additional note:
Planned for this release was a function for the general completion of orders. This function was intended to make it possible to complete all underlying components/operations with one "click" via a created order.
Due to technical rework, we will not yet publish this function in this release and will therefore probably publish it with the next software version.
