Abstract
Shop documentation is a document filled with all relevant information of product processing, which is playing an important role in CNC machining. At present, although shop documentation could be generated from 3D modelling software, the contents in shop documentation are usually not up to operators’ requirement. On this condition, the data structure of shop documentation should be rebuilt, and a new approach of generating shop documentation should be created as soon as possible. In this paper, the data structure of shop documentation is redesigned to make sure that the document contains the most suitable information, and a new kind of shop documentation plug-in is developed in Siemens NX software at the same time, which could generate PDF-format shop documentation very fluently. The plug-in is programmed by C++, using the function library of NX software which is called NX Open C. Finally, an example of generating shop documentation in NX software is given to prove that the shop documentation plug-in works properly.
