Export Holders 
Access: Open this function from one of the following locations:
The Cutters and Holders dialog (or the minimized version - the Select Only Mode):
-
When not editing or creating a procedure, select NC-Process > Cutters > Cutters from the menu bar or select Cutters
in the NC Guide Toolbar. -
While editing or creating a procedure, use one of the following methods (in both methods, the Select Only Mode is displayed):
-
In the Advanced Mode, click on the cutter name in the Procedure Parameter Table.
-
In the Wizard Mode, select the cutter button.
-
-
In the Process Manager, click on the cutter name in the procedure row (in this case, the Select Only Mode is displayed).
Export selected holders to CHL and CSV files. The following holder export options are available from the Cutters and Holders, Cutter Library, or Holder Library dialogs:
|
|
Export selected holders to CHL File: Export selected holders to a CHL file.
|

Export selected holders: In the Cutters and Holders and Cutter Library dialogs, this option is: Export the holders and extensions of the selected cutters: Export the holders and extensions of selected cutters to a CSV file.

The export operation enables you to:

Create a folder of holders each in a different CHL or CSV file. These holders can then be imported into future jobs selectively or all at once
-
Create a library of holders (attached to the cutters) to be used in future files
-
Create additional libraries of holders
Note: Only data that has been saved (using OK 
or Apply 
) can be exported.
