I have a piece of stock that I'm machining 36 identical parts out of. I have 3 different operations that happen to each part.
I am wondering if it is possible to have it do each operation to each individual part, without having to create all 3 operations on every piece.
Thanks.
Hi @patioroofriser, If all 36 parts are in the same file I don't see any reason you couldn't. I certainly made parts this way, one rough cut to all parts and then a finish contour on all parts. You are really just treating it like one part that separates into 36 pieces. This was in Fusion360 as I'm not 100% on what software you have. Rereading your question it may be that you are looking for patterning of toolpaths. Here is a link for how to do it in F360. https://help.autodesk.com/view/fusion360/ENU/?guid=GUIDE86746AC-03D4-4909-812D-128D855ED02C

Look into "pattern" in the Jobs panel. You can order by tool, or by operation. It can be a linear, circular, mirror pattern.
