Inventor HSM | Add option Stock from spun profile

Inventor HSM | Add option Stock from spun profile

When I start on a milling machine with a part that is previously machined on a lathe I need the finished part from turning as stock for milling. Spun profil gives me just what I need, but it cant be used as stock.

 

This option saves me from creating custom solids as stock. 

 

It applies on parts like these

Yes, I have been using spun profile/body in HSMWorks for stock on milling of turned parts.  It works very well.  It obviously works in HSMWorks since it create a separate body in the history tree.  Draw back to this method is that it has never been associative to the model.

I am archiving this idea because it rolls into future plans regarding stock models and re-using stock data.
