Lathe Program Post Error. . .

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I am fairly new to Fusion and am trying to program this simple part. I think I have all my Ts crossed and Is dotted, but when I go to post, it gives me an error. It seems to be in my rough turning pass, but I can't figure out what is wrong. I tried selecting the spun profile option under the preferences section after seeing a couple other forum posts about it - but that didn't fix it. I have attached the fusion file. 

Anyone know of a fix I can try? Or something I am doing wrong? Thanks

Can you tell me which post processor you would like to use, there are quite a few.

I am trying to use a Fanuc post processor - language C.

I see the FANUC post configuration but I do not see a "C" language one.  With the FANUC Turning configuration, there is no error is posting.  Can you tell me where I can find the post configuration you specified?

Well, I tried clicking "post process" and posting it that way, as you showed in your screenshot - and it worked! Before, I had been right clicking "setup1" and selecting "create nc program" and posting that way. In the "create nc program" window, there is an option for "type a/b/c" for Fanuc. It shows up on the right hand side of the window. My lathe runs the type C (or language as I called it at first).

I see what you mean doing it your way.  I guess I do not understand the reason the different methods succeed and fail.  One thing that took me by surprise when I first opened the file was how tiny this part is.  I will look at it a bit longer, hope you come up with a reason for the differences in posting, if I find out I will let you know.

Yer it is type C, not language, and yes it is not posting with the Fanuc post but is with the Hass, changing type makes no difference ever @seth.madore  can you have a look thanks, man.

Well that's certainly not supposed to happen. I'll get a report going on this..

Can you try to download the latest Fanuc Turning post from https://cam.autodesk.com/hsmposts, and use that? I was able to successfully post an NC program using it.
