Finishing setup 2 toolpaths

00:02

In this video, we'll finish setup 2 toolpaths.

00:06

After completing this step, you'll be able to create a 2D adaptive toolpath and create a contour.

00:13

In Fusion 360, we want to carry on with our CAD/CAM Milling dataset 1.

00:18

At this point we're starting fresh from OP2 we need to clear out the inside of the part as well as finish off the outside.

00:26

We're going to do that by going to 2D. And selecting

00:30

We need to select our tool and I want to make sure that I'm using the tools in the document because they've already been assigned tool numbers.

00:37

If I were to go back and select them from my cloud library, they might have different tool numbers based on the order in which I use them.

00:44

So let's go ahead and select tool number one, our

00:48

And for our geometry we're going to select this inside pocket and then we want to make sure that we adjust all our settings as needed.

00:58

I'm not going to worry about any stock contours or rest machining because this is going to be my first operation

01:04

but I do want to make sure that I'm aware we're leaving stock on the walls and the floor.

01:09

So I'm going to say okay noting that it's creating an adaptive clearing toolpath but we still need to go back and finish off the inside.

01:18

Now that we've created the adaptive clearing. I'm going to use a 2D contour with the same tool along this edge.

01:25

But I also want to be mindful that we've already machined passed this edge from the other side,

01:30

so making sure that we're not leaving any stock behind.

01:33

We're going to say, okay, and allow it to create that 2D contour.

01:37

At this point, we can't see if all the stock has been removed

01:40

and that's something that we're going to have to use simulation for by selecting all the setups inside of this design.

01:47

The last thing that we need to do to finish off the outside of the part is to use a 2D contour and we can select this edge.

01:55

From the heights we're using the selected contour, but I want to take it down a small amount negative

02:01

making sure that we're going all the way past the bottom.

02:05

For our passes, I'm going to do this with a single roughing pass because we removed a small amount of material from the other side.

02:13

I'm going to come in, make that small cut before I go through and remove the final pass.

02:19

Going to say, okay, allow it to create my roughing and my finishing pass

02:23

because we're removing just a small amount of material, it's possible to do this in a single pass.

02:28

But depending on your requirements in your criteria,

02:32

you might want to make sure that you have additional finishing passes to finish off these critical areas.

02:39

At this point, we've machined all of the features on the part from both sides. It's a great time for us to save before moving on.
