Toolpath and post in MM

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi, 

 

 

I am new to Fusion, and I seem to be having a bit of a problem.  I have setup a drawing and added some features that I imported from stp files.  On the drawing side, everything seems to be in inches.

 

However, as soon as I switch to the CAM workspace, everything switches to MM.  And that creates a problem for my CNC mill.  I need the post to be in inches.  I have gone in to my settings and both of the CAM entries list inches as the preferred scale, but I am still getting output in MM.

 

Does anyone know how I can change this?  Or do I need to just start over in the CAM workspace?

Can you share your Fusion file?

File > Export > Save to local folder. Return to thread and attach the .f3d file in your reply.

 

What post processor are you using?

 

In your Preferences, do you have all units set to Imperial? Preferences is found up here:

Also, in the Post Dialog, you have this setting as well:
