Pocket Cut with Multiple Depths - Preserve Order not working

Anonymous

Hi Guys,

Pretty simple one. Trying to cut a spoilboard for my CNC Router. Having problems getting Fusion to preserve the order of my selections. I have seen a fair few other forum posts with the same problem and no real resolution. It want's to cut all objects at the same height before it will move onto the second deeper pockets. Any suggestions how I can complete each cut to full depth in one pass before moving on?

Thanks

Use the circular toolpath and set it to select same diameter, you only need to select the first hole you want to be cut first.

Yes, we have had various posts on this for a while, it does work OK up to a point in that yes, you can do the shallow counter bore and then the deep smaller bore in a single operation using a toolpath pattern before moving on to the next set, I haven`t as yet been able to get it to go from left to right and then back right to left, all I have for now is it will do a full line of 11 holes doing both the top and full depth at each location but then it rapids back to the left and starts again doing another line from left to right so it is nearly there, what we need is a "both ways" option I think, I couldn`t get any of the ordering options to make a difference. I can get it to do left to right or bottom to top by changing the edges selection for directions !!

Anyway, here is the file, best I have for now, maybe you can play around with the settings to get it more to your liking !!
