processing cam cat

[peloritano]

I have a problem that until now I have always been around but that I would like to solve....

I practically have a surface like that in figure consisting of two vertical walls and a horizontal wall. ....

my intention would be to perform a workmanship in which the spherical tool climbs on the vertical wall then cross the horizontal wall and then rejoin the other vertical wall and then reverse the motion and continue to zig zag. for this use a sweep processing but the result is that in figure, that is, the only horizontal wall is worked and the vertical walls are completely ignored.

Would someone more experienced than me know how to do that?? Maybe I can use some other workmanship or maybe insert some particular paramentro... the only warning is that the tool axis must be fixed and perfectly vertical.

Do the other cams have the same problem that I encounter with catia?? ?

you can use the contour-driven processing, holding the tilted tool (only in the calculation) , then in the processing you can keep it right (always if you have no problems with cutter or spindle) .......... But you should work half and then mirror.
the tilted cutter you only need to correctly show the vertical wall............ I hope it will be okay:wink:

 

[mcbramby]

What's that? ? ?

 

[peloritano]

It's not good.... .
I can do this, but I need a single job. . .

 

[mcbramby]

I'm sorry... but cover the program mirrors it and let it go together with the other, you do not notice that they are 2 programs, they run the frieze

 

[peloritano]

See..... this happens.... If you wash two porgrams as you say perfectly mirrored and lined to the cad you will have a precision to the cent....
When you proceed to the processing instead happens that the insert is consumed and I can assure you that the intersection between the processes will appear visible with a step that although very small is unacceptable. . .

Anyway now I'd like to be able to work all my surface in the way I previously described without double or various artifices... is it possible that the whole surface should be processed at the casket? ? ?

Hello fur:smile:


logically I wouldn't work like that!! because the design is incomplete...

Give me five minutes I'll show you why

 

[RS4]

What's that? ? ?

from the known image that you have increased the angle to be able to descend along the wall the tool... But as I understand, he needs to work at 90°...

to perform that work with the sweep as you asked. that geometry is not good.. because catia needs a real swep to be able to descend along the wall in a single operation.... because if not it says that it finds nothing to fresare and it is also logical... I better explain these are processes that are to be divided into each one's type of work



I'll show you what you want

i attach image where simplifies functionality

Bye-bye.

then you never gave us a return! !

You got it? ?

hi rs4... the solution you suggested I've already used in the past but it's not what I'm looking for and explain why....
The surface I posted is very simple, and it was just to make it clear what I wanted. In reality, I have to fresare much more complex surfaces that have vertical walls (obtained for flanging) with very irregular lower edge.
These vertical surfaces as well as in the image I posted must be completely milled, which means that I must first extend them and then do that kind of step as you did...
the surfaces must be extended because working with a spherical cutter I will have that the contact point between tool and surface will be on the side of the tool itself anyway the image that I attach now will clarify the problem.. .

Extend the surface and then create that step I assure you that it's something that would take away at least one day's work (it's actually not a vertical wall but an infinity' of vertical walls).
I thought there was a chance to perform the processing I indicated in a simpler way.

Okay clear.. .

if you can without any problem post the .catprocess file.. So I'll take a look at him.

If I can help you

 

[peloritano]

then.... place a portion of surface with processing boards. . . .
I also put the image of the processing that came out of it.. .
the fins that are seen in the figure are perfectly vertical, and according to my intention the tool had to travel them for all their vertical extension instead the tool stops to fresare only the radiated part and the horizontal part. . .

I press that the figure is only a portion of the milled surface, which means that the vertical fin is present throughout the outer perimeter of the surface and its lower edge is very jagged. to think about extending it and creating the edging as suggested is an operation that takes hours of work (unfortunately I have to do so).

Good evening to all, I most likely messed up with the discussions and apologize for this.
I have a problem related to the definition of special yields ad hoc per catia v5.
in particular I have to use a special cutter for the realization id a component.
in order to evaluate the validity of this mill, I would like to implement it in catia v5 directly.
Is it feasible?
if you can proceed?
Thank you very much for your availability.
