https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/featurecam-forum/tool-holder-extensions/m-p/9425476#M1951 <P>I was wondering how other people deal with having tooling extensions in machine simulation. I have an ER32 axial milling holder in our turret, but in order to access the feature I have to use an ER11 collet extension. Do I have to model the the milling holder and ER11 collet extension is there another way?&nbsp;</P> Mon, 06 Apr 2020 18:31:54 GMT steveGZ6M3 2020-04-06T18:31:54Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/featurecam-forum/tool-holder-extensions/m-p/9425476#M1951 <P>I was wondering how other people deal with having tooling extensions in machine simulation.

Furthermore, as you mentioned, if you have a custom holder model, you could add an extruded cylinder to account for it as well.&nbsp;</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>Let me know if that makes sense. If you have any questions, let me know!</P> Mon, 06 Apr 2020 19:55:37 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/featurecam-forum/tool-holder-extensions/m-p/9425662#M1952 kelbie.ockey 2020-04-06T19:55:37Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/featurecam-forum/tool-holder-extensions/m-p/9427709#M1953 <P>It isn't perfect but should be acceptable. Good idea thanks!</P> Tue, 07 Apr 2020 15:40:27 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/featurecam-forum/tool-holder-extensions/m-p/9427709#M1953 steveGZ6M3 2020-04-07T15:40:27Z
