How do I import a tool from a MCX file?

It is possible to import a tool or multiple tools from an existing MCX file. You first need to open the MCX file you wish to import the tools from and save the tools as a tool library. Now this tool library can be used inside Mastercam at any time.

1. Open the “Tool Manager”



2. Click on the 3rd icon in the middle of the Tool Manager.



3. Browse to the MCX file and select “Open.”



4. Select a location and name for the new tool library that will be created from the MCX.



5. Once the library has been created it can now be selected from within the “Tool Manager” or from within an operation.
