Transcript
00:01
This is a practice exercise video solution.
00:07
For this practice, we're going to be using parting-pe.f3d.
00:11
This contains a profile roughing and finishing toolpath and now we need to create a parting toolpath on the back side.
00:18
To do this, we're going to go to Turning and select Turning Part.
00:23
We'll need to select an appropriate tool and for this, we’ll go into our Fusion 360 Library and we're going to select an OD grooving tool.
00:32
From here, we need to modify some of our parameters.
00:36
It already knows that it's going off the back of the model.
00:38
However, we want to use an edge break set to a Fillet.
00:42
I’m going to go to a top view and I'm going to set the Fillet radius to 0.125.
00:49
Notice exactly where that Fillet is being created and how large it is in the toolpath.
00:55
Let's go ahead and OK this and just see how it looks on the model.
00:59
Because this is the center of the tool, notice that it's starting out roughly at the end of our part, and then the arc doesn't look correct,
01:08
but once we notice that it's actually matching the profile based on the center of the tool, everything works out fine.
01:15
We're gonna go to Simulate, and I'm gonna drag through this just to make sure that it's starting to take out the material,
01:22
and then it's going to go back and smooth out that corner before it goes all the way to the inside.
01:28
From here, everything looks good, so I'm going to navigate back to home view and save this before moving on.
