Follow these steps to successfully import tools from ToolsUnited to Factory Control Center | FCTR:
Another option is to directly enter the article number of the tool manufacturer.
Check the Import Dialog for Tool Data, and confirm with OK if all of the data is correct.
Before the import process starts, the tool data is checked. For example, the “Standard Number”, “Description” and “cuttingedgediameter”.
If the import was successful, the tool can be displayed on the “Classification” tab, and the DIN characteristics, such as the “cuttingedgediameter” can be checked again.
A right mouse click on the UTC object opens the 3D model in the CAD environment.
