Chamfer does not generate G41/G42 cutter compensation

Chamfer does not generate G41/G42 cutter compensation

Hello,

I have to chamfer the hole using chamfer operation. At Passes tab for this operation there is a Compensation Type option.  I have selected " Wear" but the code generated does not have G41 G40 compensation.  Is it bug or I am doing something wrong.

I have attached Fusion file.

 

Thanks

I believe this is a bug and 2D Chamfer doesn't use wear compensation. Tried it in an entirely different part with completely different geometry and wound up with the same result. You can use 2D Contour though, using the Chamfer checkbox on the Passes tab, and wear compensation is working correctly.

 

@fonsecr could you confirm this?

 

Edit: I got the same result using 2D Chamfer in HSMWorks 2018 R1.41862.

If this is bug, should it be reported to somebody?

I tagged a developer in my previous post to get his attention hopefully. I feel like this has been around for a while so perhaps we'll get some insight.

Thanks. An oversight on my behalf. I opened ticket CAM-7448 to get this one supported.

I've been seeing the same issue.  This thread has been silent for a while now.  What was the end result?  Fix or no fix?

Still having the same issue. NO G41/G42 with chamfer. Why is it in the drop-down and available to choose if it's not going to work? Is this ever going to be addressed, or am I just missing something??

I came looking for a missing G41 in my code and apparently, this is still a thing 5 years later.

Hi, there is actually nothing to fix.  Read thru this:

Actually, you can skip to the last few answers.
