grezzo compound

[meacmae]

I have this kind of problem.
I have to achieve a control caliber for a twisted shape.
My problem is that they are in z with a lot of variation if I create a single rough I have to work it very much, while I for the construction of the caliber I mount 2 blocks one a parallelepipedo (400x120x40) and a cube superimposed with dimensions (40x50x30).
I avoid so much fresare, but I can't build this initial rough on featurecam, and it seems impossible that the prog. can't do it.
Who can help me?
Thank you.

hi, in featurecam you have the possibility to automatically define a rough as parallelepipedo, cylinder or polyhedron, intended as an extrusion of a regular polygon.
for different forms you must select the rough user option and then select raw solid to be able to select one.
this can be either a solid imported from an external cad or molded into featurecam (but you must have purchased the 3d modeling module).
if you have neither a cad nor the internal module, then you can first create a parallelepiped block of total dimensions (400 x 120 x 70 in your case), cut off the material around the block on the first 30 mm, simulate the removal and then save the simulation in a stl file.
at this point you can start with your work by uploading and defining as a rough user the stl file.
ah, to save the simulation as stl, the command finds it under sight -> simulation -> saves simulation results.
I hope this will solve your problem.
