In this video, you’ll: verify the axis work coordinate setup against the posted code.
00:10
When posting out a setup with multi-axis machining operations,
00:15
best practice is to review the posted G-code to ensure that the NC program has been configured to include the correct axes.
00:25
Open the file Verify Axis Output.f3d in the Manufacture workspace.
00:32
Then, in the Browser, under Setups, expand Setup1.
00:39
This setup already has the required toolpaths to machine the majority of this part.
00:45
Some of the toolpaths require a multi-axis orientation to clear sides of the part
00:52
that were not aligned with the Z-axis when the setup was created.
00:57
From the Toolbar, expand Setup and select Create NC Program.
01:04
This opens the NC Program dialog.
01:08
Under Machine and post, next to Post, click More to open the Post Library and specify the post-processor to be used.
01:20
For this exercise, from the Fusion 360 library list, select HAAS-Next Generation Control, and then click Select.
01:33
Back in the NC Program dialog, under Program, in the Name/Number field,
01:41
assign the program a number, such as 1258.
01:47
Then, in the Output Folder field, ensure that the folder path is correct.
01:54
Next, open the Operations tab.
01:58
Select Setup1.
02:00
All operations are now selected.
02:04
Click Post.
02:07
The dialog closes, and the file browser opens at the location where the NC program will be saved.
02:14
Click Save.
02:16
A notification displays, stating that the NC code successfully posted.
02:23
From here, click View NC Code.
02:27
The NC Code opens in your default source-code editor.
02:33
Now, review the code to verify that the correct output has been posted.
02:40
For this machine, look for A and B output.
02:45
Currently, only A and C outputs are displaying.
02:49
This means you must edit the NC program.
02:53
Close the window.
02:56
In the Browser, under NC Programs, right-click NCProgram1 and click Edit to open the NC Program dialog.
03:08
Click the Settings tab.
03:11
Under Post properties, Group 1, you can specify which axis the machine has.
03:20
Currently, A-axis rotary and C-axis rotary are enabled.
03:27
Expand the Has B-axis rotary drop-down and select Yes.
03:33
Then, set Has C-axis rotary to No.
03:38
Click Post.
03:40
Again, in the file browser, click Save, to overwrite the existing code.
03:47
Open the new G-code in your source-code editor.
03:52
Now, both the A and B outputs are listed.
