What should be our last conference call for this round of
demonstrations will be this Wednesday. The proposed agenda
is as follows. See below for connection details. <br>
<br>
1. Final review of the test data set. In this version a
second fixture with a spacer has been added to the data
set for setup's 2, 3 and 4. Before viewing this data you
must load the latest version of the STEP-NC Explorer (8.72
or later) because it has logic necessary to manage two
fixtures in the new scheme.<br>

<br>
2. Discussion of how to manages fixtures and machining
compensation. In STEP-NC the fixture can be positioned to
give the perfect location and orientation to the part, but
in practice the physical setup may not be perfect which is
the reason why the setup needs to be compensated.</big></big></font></big></big><font
