Working through the best way to build up workflows and I've come across a setup issue. I have a machine model built up for the 5 axis machine, within the machine model I include all fixtures as the machine stays exactly the same for every setup.
I want to select the table platter on the machine as the WCS origin because this always remains G54 on the machine. Within the setup tab, the machine is hidden and I'm not able to select it? I'm only able to see the machine under the move tab?
I'm trying to avoid building up complete fixtures models for every new part, which is why I added them to the machine file. Is this appropriate?
So in your base template file, measure the position of the point you need when you see the machine, and create a plane and sketch, draw the point in place, and then pick that in your CAM setup. You'll only have to do this once, after that just use this file as your template, it will be permanently selected for all following jobs.
You could also position the fixture in this template and pick your point from the fixture (fixture not being in the machine). The rest is the same, pick the point from your fixture, and keep this file as your base template.
