Help in Pro/Manufacture

Jun 20, 2005 4 Replies

Hi:



I was using ProManufactue for defining a milling process on a ball shaped surface. But I was not able to get the tool path generated. I always got the failure notice that: UNABLE TO GENERATE THE TOOL PATH.



Can anybody please help me in this.



Thank you. Regards, Anni.



Was it a surf mill seq.? Was it a surface quilt you're trying to cut, or was it a solid surface? Could you be more specific on how the problem occurs?

Specify a top surface so that it knows what surface to plunge threw

How did you know it was a volume mill? I've seen same exact error message on surface mill and other type of nc seq. too.

I was just guessing. The error is the same no matter what happens, if you don't define any of the many steps in a tool path it will error. The reason that I guess top surfaces is he said he was cutting a ball shape. But you are right it could be any amount errors.
