The Coolant can be applied in several places:
- The Cutting Data tab of the Tool dialog.
- The Feeds and Speeds dialog.
- The Toolpath tab on the Edit Selected NC Programs dialog (available from the individual NC Program menu).
- The NC Programs dialog (available from the Settings option on the individual NC Program menu).
Changing the coolant type in different dialogs has different impacts.
If you change the coolant type on the Tool dialog, any new toolpath or NC program using this tool picks up this new coolant type.
If you change the coolant type on the Edit Selected NC Programs dialog:
- Any new NC program using this toolpath picks up this new coolant type.
- This value overrides the value entered in the Tool dialog.
If you change the coolant type on the NC Programs dialog:
- This NC program picks up this new coolant type.
- This value overrides the value entered in the Tool dialog or the Edit Selected NC Programs dialog.
