I've found that the machine simulation works with WCS. Even building fixture and stl stock material in WCS.

It'll work with most of the default machine simulators.

There is a trick that the solid will stick to the machine table. So you have to build some solid a distance below from where your intended Z zero level will be.

So if you're planning to have your stock like 10 inches above the table.

Then you need to build a solid stock sheet 10 inches below your intended stock.

 

I have however found it quite cumbersome to developing a new Machine simulator to a specific machine configuration.

 

There's a video on Youtube and has been shared around the forum in places, but I'm not sure what the guy in the video is using because I can't seem to find those functions in a regular licensed copy of MCX?
