    Typical number of MOP's run at a time.

    hello everyone,

    This is something I have wondered for a long time already. Due to my inexperience I often program an operation, run it, watch it get cut and repeat.
    Recently I have been combining operations into one post - for instance all the Counter boring and drilling.
    I am wondering how most people do it. How do most CNC houses do it? Do they program an entire part and just run it?

    Re: Typical number of MOP's run at a time.

    I typically program the entire part and run it unless I have to reposition the piece then I may break it up into multiple runs. However, each part may have multiple MOPs which run end to end within the same gcode file.
