X7 Verify - bugs still there

[rocheey1]

Already submitted several files on this one, and just now tried something a little more complex that 2.5 axis milling on standard stock setup.

 

The bugs are still there. Its just no longer crashing to the desktop.

 

If Im using a face Mill, I get the error "zero length line", the tool doesnt display, and the verify is incorrect

 

 

If I try 3 X 2 milling, std end mill, and select a solid for the stock, (orthogonal solid) i get this error :

"could not create a solid-intersector for a toolElement in SimulateToolElement_OnListSurface()!"

 

followed by this error:

"bad allocation"

 

Followed by this error:

"????????"

 

then the stock disappears

This is a bug that has to do with the radius on a tool. I had this issue with a slot cutter that was .250 tall with full radius. I changed the tool to .1245 corner radius then it worked.

I have "no corner radius" checked.

You right. I just tried a mastercam created tool from the tool wizard and got another error than you did. Sad Sad Sad

I just tried the most simple Transform Rotate toolpath (4th axis) I could think of. Mill two slots on top, rotate from Right view and repeat on bottom.

 

Wouldn't even post an A move, tool goes right through the part????

You'll get this alarm if Shoulder Length = Flute Length

I remember reporting this in one of the preview releases and they told me that was going to be fixed for release.

That's it! I went thru a job that has been crashing, added .0001" to shoulder lengths of all tools, and all the crashes disappeared.

 

Trouble is, we only use shoulder lengths here for tools that actually have shoulder lengths.. or shoulders, for that matter. We gotta go thru a 30,000 + tool database and fudge them all ?

[rocheey1]

Nix that .... it ran once without any crashes. Just tried re-running it and the errors are back :/

I'm getting this error when running Verify on a Mill Turn lathe part, that generates, posts, and runs fine on the machine. It occurs at a C Axis drill toolpath.
