3D RAMP: Error: CAM kernel died unexpectedly.

Hello all, I was trying to CAM a similar part but kept running into an empty tool path error.  After thinking about it more I tried a simplistic approach just to get a tool path but am now running into an error/bug.

 

Please see the attached file and let me know if I'm doing something to cause this error and/or if there might be a workaround to try and use RAMP.  Otherwise I'm guessing my next best option is 3D CONTOUR but am open to suggestions.

 

Thanks in advance!

 

P.S.  I'm running Fusion 360 on a new MacBook Pro.

I notice if I change the containment settings to Tool Center on Boundary or Tool Outside Boundary, the toolpath will generate successfully.

Does that help at all?

 

Thanks,

Thank you for your response @innovatenate !  I've played around with the Containment setting per your recommendation and I do get a valid tool path now, thank you!

 

Getting past that I'm struggling to get what I consider to be a "clean" tool path for this operation.  I'm sure it's the type of tool path I'm trying to use and/or the settings within.  I'll make another post for that as it's beyond a technical issue and more user error/inexperience.

 

Thanks again!
