I am trying to set up the 2D Face mill step tgo mill the faces of the workpiece. I was planning to use a .5 inch dia., 2 inch long 4 flute flat endmill. But when I select tool and try to give these dimensions to an endmill, everything behaves correctly, but the tool shows up after OK as #1 - O0.2031" flat. What am I doing wrong.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Can you export the file as an .f3d and post it here or email it to cam.support@autodesk.com? I'm not getting the same thing on my part.

the cutting diameter is smaller than the shank diameter and an odd decimal number.

I am trying to select a 1/2" diameter flat end mill, and when I do, I get an error: "Error: Internal CAM kernel error. Please report through your support channel."

How do I change these? I see a tool library, but nothing in it matches my 1/4" shank, 1/2" diameter, 2" long, 4 flute end mill.

att's odd because I am using tools from your libraries. See attached screen failining with "no toolpath" complaints. What am I doing wrong?

The first problem I see is that you don’t have a model select in your setup. The next is that your geometry is showing something select but I don’t see it on the part. Could the edges you selected have been removed from the part?
Once I selected the model and new geometry the Adaptive operation generated.

Thank you. I was able to generate gCode. I am now on to my next problem. The Sherline post processor produces gCode that specified a tool not inh the EMC library, so I added it, and yet the simulator refuses to run ith it. On the LinuxCNC forum, another user said that I should use the generic EMC postprocessor. When I tried that I received the attached error log.

Post processing failed.
This is normally cause by not working on the setup XY plane and using a non-rotary post processer. Do you have an operation that is using Tool Orientation?

Not to my knowledge am I using a Tool Orientation. Where would this be appearing?
What is a non-rotary postprocessor?

When I run simulate, I see my end mill coming in from the side on one face, where all the other mills are coming from Z.

If you look at http://www.linuxcnc.org/index.php/english/forum/38-general-linuxcnc-questions/29441-tool-question?st... and look at NitroCH3No2's response of
