tool path not supported by this tool

tjchance22 — Fri, 30 Sep 2022 20:42:39 GMT

I am having trouble with fusion's CAM. When I try to engrave something, I get as far as creating a new setup. But when I go to create a toolpath, it gives me a warning saying:

"Toolpath is not supported for the given tool and settings.

You likely need to change your tool."

I've tried multiple tools, multiple faunts and dimensions, and I can't find anything wrong with the setup. When I try clicking on the red or orange warning flag, the warning screen pops up, but the warning tabs are all blank. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Tom

Please attach your Fusion 360 model so the Forum users can look at your issue. If you do not know how to attach your Fusion 360 model follow these easy steps. Open the model in Fusion 360, select the File menu, then Export and save as a F3D or F3Z file to your hard drive. Then use the Attachments section, of a forum post, to attach it.

I see no issue. You said you wanted to engrave your part but you did not select an engraving tool thus the error. Model is attached. Since you added a machine, to the manufacturing environment, the file is an F3Z file. Make sure you know how to open it so you do not over write your own model. I suggest you Upload it to a separate folder to make sure.
