Error occures when try to do machine simulation

[henkielcubepl]

Hi. I need to generate code for my machine with righ angle head. I wanted to do it in such a way that in fusion I will select the haas VR-14 machine and generate a code that will already include codes like "G17, G18, G19" and change it a little so that it fits my siemens machine. unfortunately, when I try to run a machine simulation or when postprocess the code this error occurs. 

Error: The Safe Z-retract distance for head rotations must be at least 50.8mm.

Error at line: 865

I have already tried to change safe Z heights but it doesn't help. I even tried to turn off the "tool orientation" option and try the usual simple 3-axis machining but the error still appears

How can i solve my simulation problem and is there any other way to program right angle head in fusion?

Hi @henkielcubepl 

There is a safety feature on this post.

Apparently, in order to avoid collision with some part of the tool changer system, C axis rotation must only occur after a retract move long enougth

You can find the error message code here

  if (getProperty("safeRetractDistanceZ") < minRetract) {
    error(subst(localize("The Safe Z-retract distance for head rotations must be at least %1"), minRetract) +
      (unit == IN ? "in." : "mm."));
    return;
  }

This is necessary for the machine it was initially targeted.

Cheers.

Thank you for respond. So I need to change the post processor first to make it work?

If your machine is not a Haas VR-14, and you don't have this kind of problem, you can modify the post for your tests. It's up to you.

But as usual, when you modify something, use it at your own risk.

Cheers.
