Centroid Mill Turn PP for fusion 360 (WIP)

Setup / Part / WCS Table / Return

and then set in G28 in machine coordinates where it should go if G28 is called.

Thank you, of course it worked
I would never have found that

The week comes my servo from Stefan
I took the 1.3 kw that revs up to 4000 rpm
He should have enough strength
I'm curious how it works and I'm looking forward to being able to simply switch to the C axis
again in colloquial German

Ich danke dir. Wie immer hat es natürlich geklappt.
Das hätte Ich im Leben nie gefunden.

Die Woche kommt mein Servo von Stefan
Ich hab den 1.3 kw Servo genommen der dreht bis 4000U
Ich hoffe denke das der genug Kraft hat für die Üblichen Alu Stunts.
Bin gespannt wie der geht und freu mich drauf das Ich nicht mehr um die Maschine klettern muss zum Riemen runter machen sondern einfach M50 und dann wechselt das Ding auf C Achse Betrieb.

danke dir nochmal
Gruss Stephan

Another awesome job Uwe!
I hope to be able to try this one day.

Hi UWE,
I am running your PP but I am getting sporadic full feed lines in the outputted code. It also seems to insert a random "Z safe height" before it has finished running the pocket.

Everything in the fusion toolpath looks correct and I have tried with "always use high feed'" as well as "Preserve rapid moves" enabled in both the setup tabs and the PP menu. It is also not always related to a retract move either, it can be just random in a tool down cutting move.

I am sure it is a simple setting that I have wrong or a simple variable in the PP code but I cannot find it. Any chance you might have any ideas? I am happy to email files etc if you need.

With further development I have found the problem to be more sinister. The outputted path is not correct. The fusion model looks like this:-

If I PP with generic centroid mill I get this toolpath which seems correct:-

If I use the mill/turn PP in the link I get:-

For reference, If I use a generic "fraunc" PP they all come out like this:-

Surely I am missing something. Any Ideas?

Can you upload your fusion file, so I can test it?

How exactly do you simulate this in fusion? I still can't figure out how to simulate the live tooling on a lathe in fusion. Nothing I try works. Do you need to buy an extension to make 3 axis work on a lathe? or do you run it as a mill?

[suntravel]

I have default abo for fusion, simulation is no problem, but the part will not turn, the tool does change its position around the part.

abo?

The default paid version with a monthly/annual fee...
