Machine Builder Utility / Post Processor / Fixture Attachment Point - Issue

I took the model I have of my machine and used the Machine Builder to make a digital twin. That process was fairly straightforward. The Post processor I normally use does not support Machine simulation. I downloaded a generic Fanuc post that does support machine sim. 

 

In my CAM Setup I select my Machine, which is new to me. I select my Model, WSC, Stock as I normally do. Setting the fixture is new to me as well. I select the vise and adapter plate I set the Fixture attachment point to the center of the back of the plate. I thought this would snap that location to the "origin" that I selected in the machine builder. But I'm not getting the result I wanted. 

 

any ideas? I feel like I've tried everything

 

unfortunately my files were too big to attach.

Hi @tobiasSCLW4 

 

can you please share your file, either using an archive or sharing a public link?

Because just looking at the picture can't help us diagnose the problem.

You may have entered an offset during the placement of the part, or selected a location, different than what you intended...

 

You can either share a link to your Fusion file. See:
https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/fusion-360/learn-explore/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/How-t...


or you can save an archive (f3d, or f3z) and share it on the forum

Cheers

Thanks for the reply Serge. I actually figured out my problem shortly after I posted this. Which was a few months ago now. I don't exactly remember how but it's fixed now. 

 

Thanks again

Hi @tobiasSCLW4 

 

either you have tweaked the Selection priority between face, edge... but I doubt.

Or you have played with differents options in this dialog

Using the Fixture box point instead of a selected point, tuning with the xyz distance at the bottom...

Or eventually selecting differently the table attach point.

Who knows.

 

If you have a working workflow, that what matters.

 

Cheers.
