tool path

tool path

I imported a lathe tool into Creo parametric 10.1, and whenever I run the simulation, the tool above the workpiece has a distance almost equal to the radius of the insert tip. How can I make the tool execute the simulation correctly?

I went through this process by creating parameters, defining the tool size, and still, I am not able to achieve the desired simulation result

Cezar,

Review the info in this link.

This might be another solution.

Also, this link discusses the CONTROL_POINT setting that might help.

Let me know,

Hi Cezar,

Have you stopped the simulation and zoomed in to look at the nose radius?

I think the cut lines follow the center of the tool nose radius.

When you defined the tool, where was the "TIP" CSYS created, center of the tool nose radius or imaginary sharp corner?

Other than the obvious rgh stk or fsh stock allowance settings, this is all I can think of.

 

Can you leave a jpeg or png screen shot of the tool path around the tool nose radius along the last path?

Also, a screen shot of the tool tip, inside the file where it was created, with the "Tip" visible at the origin of the tool.

 

Thanks,

Jay.
