Setup of Lathe Turning & Mill/Turn - Fusion 360 - And Your Comments & Questions-

[@josephmoore0580]

Thanks so much for this! I have been looking all over for how to make a hex pattern and could not figure it out. So simple after seeing it done, but would have probably never known to check that drop down. You don't know what you don't know... Thanks so much for posting!

[@CasualInventor]

Thanks you Lars, I just managed to create my first CAM setup for a simple lathe turning part. I now understand how the sequence of tooling steps comes together. The major problem I had before was that Fusion didn't understand that I wanted the Z axis to be left-to right. Now it all just works! OD turning, stepping down to another smaller OD, spot drilling and deep peck-drilling, then chamfering. You covered a lot in this video and I got a lot out of it. CAM isn't as scary now. Cheers!

[@cadcamstuff]

That is awesome to hear Adam Ward .Thank you for watching the videos

[@markanthonysmith413]

Great video Lars, I'm a CNC turner miller and it was very interesting seeing your setup for turning/milling ...All the best Mark.

[@cadcamstuff]

That is awesome to hear Mark Smith .Thank you for watching the videos

[@andrew_the_machinist]

I can't say it enough...thank you again, Lars, for doing these videos!

[@aadithyasathyanarayanan9397]

I really wanted to learn mill/turn for a very long time .. Thank you so much for making that possible today .. Amazing and apt dataset in the video

[@cadcamstuff]

You are so very welcome :-) Thank you for watching!

[@fibre17]

Great job! Thank you so much.

[@cadcamstuff]

Thank you Mikey79

[@gregkowalsky8890]

Hello Lars. Is it possible to post this flat face pattern to machine without Y axis ? Just X,Z and C (spindle angular movement) ?

[@Arduino_Projects-u6j]

Hey Lars, I'm learning so much with you. Thanks a lot!

[@cadcamstuff]

You are so very welcome :-) Thank you for watching!

[@joeshmoe5935]

Good job thanks, but it looks like you totally forgot about us Shmoes with the antique machines that only have a C axis. Some kind of Keyseat cutter with a corner radius axially mounted.

[@agostinocavazza9731]

you are so easy to understand and very capable!! Milinon of thanks

[@MrElprototipo2012]

great video Lars your the man and glad to see your part of Titans of CNC brothr

[@cadcamstuff]

Thank you MrElprototipo2012

[@TomK-t6b]

Could you kindly provide access to the Fusion tool database with parameters? It would greatly assist hobbyists like myself using Fusion 360 for turning and milling projects. Thank you!

[@elilco]

Lars good video! however the tool path on the live tools is great for someone who has a Y axis. what about someone who has live tools without a Y? the front angle on the part will have to be milled with the side of the tool using the X and the Z travel. you didn't touch on the importance of having a really good post for the machine you work on otherwise it's useless. it might look good in simulation but that's about it. Nevertheless it's a very good tutorial.

[@cadcamstuff]

Hi elilco Thank you for watching! Yes, you are right I did not touch on other machine configurations...there are so many :-) And a good post is essential everyone!

[@mgeorge003]

Lars, thanks for the informative video. Could you make a video showing how to use live tooling to make flutes or pockets with live tooling on the X-axis using Fusion 360?

[@plakumunac]

Hi Lars, thanks for the video. Assuming fusion 360 can do this, would it be possible to show how you would set up the combined cam paths for an action that milled and rotated the part at the same time? Such as if you wanted to create a variable pitch feed screw. (or point me in the direction of the correct video). Thanks!

[@cadcamstuff]

Hi Macronic Thank you for watching! Something like the wrap feature? kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6GwY4GNeKmll7c Hope this is helpful Best, Lars

Great tutorial! Thanks as usual!

[@cadcamstuff]

Thank you Jay Pierson

[@scottp119]

I would love to see a video of how to do the milling on a machine with no Y axis. My SL-20 has a C axis and X, Z. Can Fusion post that code?

[@br1ckify]

30:50 u should do this by side milling, your z-axis should be the line on the face of your part... ;)

[@ricardogomezlucea1524]

sorry very busy today..excelent tips.. thx Lars

[@cadcamstuff]

Hi Ricardo Gómez Lucea Thank you for watching! Happy you are busy :-) Have a great day!

[@Petrez186]

thank you Lars, very usable for me. Petr

You are so very welcome :-) Thank you for watching!

[@ajfreeze215]

How about some more about subspindle lathe work? For instance, how do you use the subspindle to pull stock before parting off? I just bought a new lathe (delivery next week) and this is freaking me out.......thanks for the tutorials Lars! Keep it up!

[@cadcamstuff]

Hi ajfreeze215 Thank you for watching! I am assuming you have a M code for that operation on your machine? You can actually right-click on your setup and insert manual NC code. I think that is what you are looking for. Best, Lars

[@aadithyasathyanarayanan9397]

Hey Lars , A quick suggestion . Please try to make some video on editing Post processors. Atleast in a basic level

[@cadcamstuff]

Hi Aadithya Sathyanarayanan Thank you for watching! I will put it on my list! Thank you!

[@GC-hw9ju]

How would you program this part if you were using a live center and tailstock? How would you keep from crashing into it?

[@JasonBaldwinPhotos]

Lars.. Any word on upgrades to 4 and 5 axis cam???? Looked all over autodesk site and the road-map doesn't say much.

[@cadcamstuff]

I have not heard, but I have not asked either :-)...And that I can do. Anything specific you are looking for?

[@JasonBaldwinPhotos]

3d tool paths for 4 axis. And or any other upgrades to chain generation. Any news at all would be good news..

[@JasonBaldwinPhotos]

Is there any news lars?

[@tc1890]

thank you lars. could fusion use the side of the endmill to cut the slope on the front of part

[@cadcamstuff]

Hi Tony Carmichael Thank you for watching! Yes, That could have been useful to show. You can use a contour toolpath if your machine will allow you to side milling it. Thank you!

[@ZZ3CR]

Great video. Thanks!

[@Raymond-tn8hp]

How would you finish that angle cut with the dude of an endmill so it is smooth

[@ShannonRoche-ut3ir]

I would like to receive a free concert lathe handbook. How do I do that

[@automan1223]

Does mill turn work with 4 axis setups ? Or do we approach that another way ?

[@Gamersarmor48]

Lars trying to use fusion for my multi axis live tooling lathe but i need the tool on the opposite side of the part since it has a turrent how do i make that happen i got the tool over there but it needs turned over so its cutter side up.

[@kimrosmus2945]

Can fusion 360 be used for 7 axis swiss laths

[@Tresoroeffnung]

Brilliant!

[@HIENTRAN-ze9ju]

how you can add new tool catalog like harvey or helix tools in fusion 360 ? because i now it only let me add one by one to library take long time thank

[@abbeybiketools]

Why wouldn't you just rotate the spindle 90* and cut the angled face with the side of the cutter instead of using a slow 3d tool path?

[@robertsomerville5377]

it would be the best way to do the milling, but the machine needs to have Y axis capabilities.

[@gheorghesfira7758]

Hi! When I make a finish operation of a Face of a 16mm part, it leaves a little spot in the center of the part, it in not smooth. How can i program it in Fusion to remove that center spot?

[@cadcamstuff]

Hi Gheorghe Vlad Schiop Thank you for watching! I might need more coffee, but are you sure your tool diameter is right? But anyway :-) on the passes tab (4th) you can define stepover. BEst, Lars

[@sunilsaxena5283]

Hi, how do you select mode in Stock if your part is a Casting with drafts and extra material in different areas ?

[@cadcamstuff]

Hi Sunil Saxena Thank you for watching! I would normally have the casting modelled up as its own model and then select it as stock in the dropdown in the CAM setup

[@pako_tube6898]

Yes Sir, is useful thanks

[@nikolaiownz]

Fusion can't find out the turn profile even thoug you got milled surfaces on a 3d part? i know you could do that in mastercam

[@cadcamstuff]

Hi nikolaiownz Thank you for watching! Try to check "Spun Profile" in your Setup. That should do it. Best, Lars

[@danielmetcalf]

Hi, the link to the CNC handbook does not work unfortunately

[@cadcamstuff]

Yes. I am going to try to fix that this weekend

[@ibrahimshamoon]

Hello Thank you very much for the video I want to ask you? this way if you drive the machine mill and lathe you will not get correct post processor because the C-axis does not rotate !!!!! i drive DMG machine control system is siemens it's 5 axeis can help me get a post processor for program fusion 360 thanks

[@cadcamstuff]

Hi ibrahim chamoun Thank you for watching! It is all in your post, right! That is what controls the A vs C movement. I would recommend you go here for further post help. forums.autodesk.com/t5/hsm-post-processor-forum/bd-p/218

[@sunilsaxena5283]

Ok, thx.. I thought so..

[@rolandbodo4155]

my man

[@seimela]

it is safe to say miling is the same as four axis programming

[@cadcamstuff]

Somewhat yes. Milling is when the tool spins around in a spindle.....Milling and drilling is almost the same....Drilling the tip of the tool removes the material. Milling the side of the tool removes the material. When it comes to programming mills, we talk about what axis are programable. XYZ would be three axis, XYZ-A or B would be four axis. Hope this is helpful

[@qamarraza5382]

Sir we make swaf programme cnc millturn 4 axis ?

[@jarisipilainen3875]

16:56 thats is exatcly G71 works. so long to setup it.i allready done G70,G76.G75. part is finished you still havent generate any code. and even worse thing you make part you have program ready next time. client want flange be moved. well you need make new program. i just modify 2 z value and click start while you making changes.

[@jarisipilainen3875]

32:59 nooh. show me how it post for c-axis turn where tool not move Y

[@jarisipilainen3875]

13:38 well looks like G71 cycle that takes less time write by hand on machine than you still drawing it.without post processing 10000 lines simple thing. if it CAM then it should actually do it easy not hard way

[@willardSpirit]

how do you do multiple grooves with the containment without turning the other parts of the profile within that containment in one operation?
