Martin,

Here is my proposal for how the measurement process would work.

Thanks,

Process for measuring and generating new NC programs for Boxy.

1. Cut Setup 1 on machine.
2. Measure features on the machine to identify machine reference.
3. Measure three planes on Boxy.
4. Create coordinate system from planes.
5. Rotate part to Setup 2.
6. Measure three planes from Setup 1 on Boxy again.
7. Create coordinate system from planes.
8. Save file with coordinate systems relative to machine reference.
9. Process file to reorient NC model.
10. Generate Setup 2 program from reoriented NC model.
11. Cut Setup 2 on machine.

Repeat steps 5-10 for remaining setups.
