All,<br>
<br>
The US Army has volunteered to help us enable CAM to CAM data exchange using STEP-NC by making test files. An image of the proposed first test file is shown below and the STEP data for the file can be found at the following URL:<br>
<br>
<a href="ftp://ftp.steptools.com/private/CAM_exchange/mbd_assembly_unrestricted_asm.stp">ftp://ftp.steptools.com/private/CAM_exchange/mbd_assembly_unrestricted_asm.stp</a><br>
<br>
They would like to know if we think this is a good file to begin the testing. If so then they will make CAM processes to machine the part in Mastercam and Esprit.<br>
