Manufacture Missing Generic Autodesk lathe

[arixFD6KR]

I am a teacher, my students need to simulate the manufacture of a bolt on a lathe for part of their qualification. I am new to this part of Fusion and started to follow the tutorial within the program and didn't get very far as there isn't a lathe as used in the tutorial in the machine library. Does anyone know why it isn't showing or know how to add one to the library?

Hi @arixFD6KR 

Recently outdated machine files in the fusion library has been removed "Autodesk Generic Mill turn Lathe" is also one of them, Currently machine simulation for lathe / turn mill machines are not supported at the moment.

To create toolpath or post process codes you don't need to define any machines. you can skip it.

or you can create an generic lathe as shown below
