fusion sweep parallel error

[inflameWBW5X]

I am trying to create a milling tool path using the sweep command.

The circle represents the cutting face of a 3mm flat end mill.

For some reason the program doesn't like the parallel orientation ?

Any idea how to fix this ?

Designing or Manufacture question?

Screams to me to be a self-intersecting request.

What are you expecting to happen at bottom dead centre? (Zoom In)

I can get a Sweep Body to half way, and then mirror the feature.

Might help....

Thanks for the answer.

Yes design mode.

I tried half way sweep with intention of mirroring but it didn't work for me. What settings did you use ?

PS oh wait.  You used a body. Is that a body sweep ?

I've never tried that.

Yep got it , thanks.

Had to set "parallel" to get it in one go.

Cheers
