Verify

[jbrain]

Hello,

I am verifying a set of roughing and finishing operations and I am trying to simulate a collision between my tool holder and part on the finishing operation. I have reduced the tool length and increased the tool holder diameter, to purposely initiate a collision, however the verify does not stop on any collisions (the stop on collision toggle is activated) and the finished part shows no gauges. Am I missing a command ?????

Thanks in advance

jbrain,

what version are you working with?

If you are using V9,changing the tool holder params in the tool parameter page will have no effect in verify.

I believe you will have to change the geometry of the tool in the main directory of mastercam. The holder.mc9 file.

 

Not sure how it will work in X

I am working in X, but I can work with 9 if there is no solution in X

Try drawing a custom tool/holder on level or by saving to file and try using that for verify,

it works in 9 don't know about X
