If you want to make NC Check, you must be shure first you modify the option in config.pro
After that if you want to verify the gauges for fixture, you must have something 3D and make the assembly in mfg file (or can be only some simple surfaces).
If you made the tool holder as a separate part file (so that the tool was an assembly), you need to set the parameter in the holder.
The parameter is VERICUT_TYPEand it's value isHOLDER
Otherwise, Vericut assumes everything is a cutter; therefore you don't need to explicitly set the parameter in the cutter. Vericut will now detect the holder gouging the part.
actually when u go to nc check, its done in vericut, not in proe, so plz make a holder in vericut. the second option is to call a solid too assy by (wf3 tools manager) open >>tool lib>>by ref/by copy. then your tool will show in vericut and it will gouge and show collision if occurs. It will not gouge by gouge check and not collide by screen play, but it will shown in vericut only.
No Zaki, actually in ProE Wildfire 3 (as asked by leow), the holder is done in ProE not Vericut.
As Maxkum initially asked, the holders in ProE 2001 cannot be exported to Vericut. Wildfire 1, 2, and 3 do send the entire tool assembly. In order for Vericut to not treat the holder as having the ability to cut material, the ProE parameter VERICUT_TYPE needs to be added to all non-cutting components of the tool assembly.
