Stock Model problem

[Greg_J]

Hey Guys,

I'm attempting to use the Stock Model program with this part I'm making and I keep getting this Warning "Initial stockshape is not defined (please see stock definition parameter page).

 

I used it the first after roughing and in the Stock Def page under Initial Stock Shape I had it refer to the Stock Setup Values, everything worked perfectly. Now a few programs later I have the Stock Def Initial Stock Shape refering to the first Stock Model program which I called Stock1. Then it gives me the error I mentioned above.

 

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

 

TIA,

Greg

it's hard to say what it is. is it possible you would put your file in ftp folder?

That can happen if you use the Stock Compare function. If you are, try turning it off and regenerating, or making an identical copy so you can have one with and one without. At this point it seems Stock Models with Compare turned on cannot be referenced by other operations.

Thanks Matt, too bad it doesn't work that way.

I created a stock model and it doesn't represent the tool paths referenced to it. I have two sloting cutters and the first pass doesn't show up on both tool paths as shown in the first picture. The second image shows what it should look like using verify. Any ideas?
