Anyone know how to use different Tool holders with machine simulation pro?

For example Drill Chuck for 1st operation and ER32 collet holder for operation 2.

You need to assign tool holders to each tool in your tool library, or in the tool selection for each feature.

Thank's Mike!

How would you go about and put a custom tool holder in there?

[MikeC8]

right click on cam defaults, select Mill Tool Holders. In there you can create custom arbors and holders. I had to add a BT 40 arbor, then each of the holders that we use in BT40.

You right click at the top of the CAM tree where you put your machine definition in. Sorry, no picture to help, but that will probably give you a good idea where to look.

Here is a screen shot, in case you could not find it. This was in V5, but its the same in V28.
