Lathe tools

Hi, how do you define the tool for the lathe.

I didn't get it from the instructions

I tried to create a Solid tool and I added CSYS TIP and CREO doesn't want to create paths even though I increased BACK_CLEAR_ANGLE.

 

Could someone send me an example of how you define this?

Thanks in advance

I udpate the tool t3_hrub_r0_8.

Modify tool parameter name TOOL_LENGHT by LENGTH

Modify tool parameter HOLDER_TYPE value by RIGHT_HAND

Hi

attached an example of right Solid Tool.

Look in the part parameters, assembly parameters, and relations.

Hi, thank you.

If I understand correctly it is always necessary to model the tool and the plate, because when I tried to import the step and define the parameters it only displayed the tool, but not the pathknife.png

or am I making a mistake somewhere?

Hi,

Have you tried with no solid tool?
