Hello @Anonymous, We need more information to better assist.

Is this a milling or turning application? What kind of machine and what does your part and tool holder (gang drilling block) look like?

The more info you provide, will help.

Photos, machine, part, tools, fusion part file, etc...

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback. Please find attached picture of the gangdrill for your clarification. I have about 5 days left on my trial. This will assist my information to go with fusion or not. I will appreciate your feedback.

Our UI doesn't support Gang style tools. However, you could just program the one tool to get the desired output.

Thanks Angelo
Please can you guide me on how I can program the gang drill as one tool. This has been my problem. or do I need resellers to help me program that?
