Steps for creating G code in Pro/E: 

1:  Model reference model and work piece as separate parts in Pro/E

2:  Create new “Manufacturing” file

3:  Assemble reference model (button on upper right hand column of buttons) 

4:  Assemble work piece (button just below reference model button) 

5:  Create new coordinate system for G54 (On Haas TM1, X+ is the
    long direction of the table pointed right. Y+ is the short 
    direction pointed to the back of the machine. Z+ is pointed up.) 

6:  Select machine: Resources\Work Center – Accept all defaults and click OK 

7:  Create new operation:  Steps\Operation – Select coordinate system and  
    retract plane 

8:  Create NC sequences and tools as needed with tool path buttons in the 
    tool bar 

9:  Play path for entire operation – Right click on operation name in model 
    tree, select “play path”  

10: Save .ncl file from “play path” control window (Make sure this is 
    the play path for entire operation not a single sequence) 

11: Create G code: Tools\CL Data\Post Process – Select the first Post  
    Processor from the list, UNCX01,
    and give the program a 4 digit number when prompted

12: Open .tap file in notepad, and G54 to the top of the code
