Stock won't properly Simulate after Update

evan.lacava — Thu, 17 Sep 2020 12:02:40 GMT

My CAM stock isn't simming properly when i run a complete toolparth simulation, so rest machining isn't working.

In-process stock sims properly when clicking each individual toolpath...but it's just showing a square when simulating the whole thing. tools aren't removing material.

Of course this job is due by EOD and CAM is acting up. Any fixes available for this?

Thanks!!

Square stock at Sim (when something else has been defined) is a telltale sign that you're likely in "Fast Mode -3 axis only-"

Got it! The update must have switched that and I didn't notice...

But the Rest machining still isn't functioning in this file for me, it's trying to clear away previously drilled material. Any idea why? I've tried creating new stock body for it to look at and it's still doing the same thing

Hmm, that is odd. I'll try to look into that at some point today, poke me later if you don't hear anything back or no one else has chimed in

Thank you!

It's odd...still doing the same thing when using 3d adaptive while in turning.

sitting here camming....I saved the simulated stock and created a second op on the mill, same 3d adaptive toolpath and same tool, and it's recognizing the setup stock and not trying to clear material there.

So it's a turning-only issue I assume? Here's an updated file with OP 2 working properly

Yep, this certainly does seem tied to any turning toolpath. Just suppressing your turning toolpaths will create an Adaptive toolpath that recognizes the drilled hole:

As a clunky workaround, you could suppress, generate your Adaptive, lock the toolpath and then un-suppress your turning....
