the sequence of the three measurement surface need to be record in the STEP-NC
data model so that the measurement operator does not need to manually figure
out the measurement sequence at each setup. This could be one of the issues we
discuss in the upcoming teleconference. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

All,<br>
<br>
The second conference call of our undecided series is this Wednesday. I would
like to propose the following agenda.<br>
<br>
1. Review of options for demonstrating CAM to CAM data exchange<br>
- David Odendahl to lead the discussion<br>
<br>
2. Review of options for demonstrating a cutting tool library interface<br>
- Bengt Olsson to lead the discussion<br>
<br>
3. Review of options for demonstrating volume compensation in closed loop
machining<br>
- <st1:PersonName w:st="on">Martin Hardwick</st1:PersonName> to lead the
discussion<br>
<br>
I have made a set of slides to get us started on the volume compensation. <br>
<a href="ftp://www.steptools.com/private/Undecided/Volume_compensation.pptx">ftp://www.steptools.com/private/Undecided/Volume_compensation.pptx</a><br>
<br>
The closed loop machining model as we left it at the end of the last
demonstration is below.<br>
<a
href="ftp://www.steptools.com/private/Undecided/Closed_loop_schema_20101108.pdf">ftp://www.steptools.com/private/Undecided/Closed_loop_schema_20101108.pdf</a><br>
<br>
We did not test the error control features of this model at <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Renton</st1:place></st1:City>, but the demonstration made it clear
that this should be an important feature of the model because this is an easy
way to prevent many of the issues that can occur when an operator is in the
loop.<br>
