Copying the Process
Follow these steps to make a copy of Laser Cut:
1 In the navigation pane, expand Processes, GCDs & Operations, right-click on Laser Cut, and select Copy Process/Operation....
2 In the Copy Process dialog, ensure that all checkboxes are checked.
By checking Create New Copies of CSL Files, you ensure the creation of new copies of the CSL modules associated with the copied process. If you uncheck this checkbox, the copy will use all the same modules as the copied process.
By checking the other checkboxes, you ensure the creation of copies of the operations associated with the copied process. Following Waterjet Cut, the AbrasiveJet Cut process will have analogs of Laser Cutting operations for the GCDs Blank, ComplexHole, and SimpleHole. (It will also have operations for cutting Edge child GCDs of blanks and complex holes, but these are added in a separate step.)
3 In the Copy Process dialog, enter AbrasiveJet Cut in the New Name Field, and click OK.
4 To incorporate your changes into the cost model, select Publish Cost Model and VPE from the File menu, or click
