I have a CAM model that is essentially a cube with a pocket. I need to assign the tool orientation origin in the middle of the plane above the pocket. How do I do this? There are no corners or anything to use. Is this even possible?
Are you using a multiaxis machine (IE with a rotary axis or multiple axes) or are you setting this up for a 3-axis machine? You won't want to use Tool Orientation if it's a 3-axis part, you'll want to make the Setup match your part orientation for CAM.
That said, I would go into the Model workspace and create an offset plane with a sketch point on it located where you want your Work Coordinate System.
