5 axis roughing

Hi

 

Does anybody know of a way to get featurecam to rough levels using 5 axis to tilt the component away from the tool.

I have programmed it by making setups for each feature and rotating the y axis 15 degrees  to clear the tool holder but wanted to know if there is another way of doing this?

Have attached a file showing the setup for one feature using z level roughing to remove material.

Hi @brian_p1,

 

You haven't 5 axis roughing strategies, so if you want this you need to play with the finish strategy and then use this as rough.

Hello @brian_p1 ,

 

Thanks for posting in Autodesk Community!!!

 

As i studied your issue and concluded that you want to avoid tool holder collision of component by tilting the tool axis. Here is the snapshot by which i have highlight the option. So please follow it. Also attached a revised toolpath FYR. If my post answers your query, please click on 'Accept as Solution' button.

Hi Sudhira,

 

If holder collision clipping is turned on then it only clips the toolpath to avoid a collision with material. It will not create a 5 axis toolpath to lean to component away from the tool. As J.D said this strategy is not available in FeatureCam for 5 axis roughing cycles
