Configuring Operations
Objectives
After successfully completing this exercise, you will be able to:
Create manufacturing operations.
Select an existing Work Center when configuring machine tools.
Assemble fixtures.
Create coordinate systems when specifying machine zero positions.
Specify retract planes.
Scenario
You need to configure an operation that involves specifying a machine tool by selecting a
pre-configured fadal Work Center. You also assemble a fixture that represents the fadal machine
tool. You configure the machine zero coordinate system for the operation. This involves creating
a new coordinate system in the manufacturing model. This coordinate system references model
geometry from the fixture assembly. Finally, you specify the retract plane relative to the machine
coordinate system.
You can select many alternative references to configure coordinate systems. In this case,
you could have selected three orthogonal surfaces to locate the coordinate system.
2. Reorient the coordinate system axes.
In the Coordinate System dialog box, click the
Orientation tab.
Click Flip to change the X-axis direction.
Observe the axes directions update, as
shown.
Click OK in the Coordinate System dialog box.
Scenario
You need to assemble reference models to two different manufacturing models. You start by
opening the mold cavity manufacturing model and assemble the mold cavity part using the Merge
by Reference option. This option copies all the mold cavity geometry into one merge feature in
the reference model.
You then open the cover manufacturing model and assemble the cover part using the Inherited
option. The Inherited option gives you the flexibility to modify geometry and features on the inherited
reference part without changing the original cover part if required.
An external merge feature has been created in the new reference model. Note the
geometry of the merge feature cannot be edited directly; however, additional features can
be added to the new reference model as required. In addition, the merge feature can be
updated to display any changes from the original reference part.

edit parameters to apply high speed machining methods. The re-roughing sequence machines
material remaining from the roughing sequence.
Notice that the tool is making passes at approximately 5 millimeter depth increments. You
need to modify the ROUGH_SCALLOP_CONTROL and ROUGH_SCALLOP parameters
to create additional passes between the roughing passes.
Notice that the tool has created additional passes between the initial roughing passes.
The ROUGH_SCALLOP_CONTROL parameter enables you to create the passes either
during or after the initial roughing passes. The ROUGH_SCALLOP parameter specifies the
maximum allowable scallop height on the walls of the cavity. The resulting scallop height is
now reduced, leaving a more uniform thickness of remaining material.
15. Click Close in the Play Path dialog box.
The manufacturing parameter CLOSED_AREA_SCAN is currently configured
with the default value of CONSTANT_LOAD. This produces a toolpath with an
approximately constant tool load. Alternatively, you can use MAINTAIN_CUT_TYPE or
MAINTAIN_CUT_DIRECTION values to minimize retract moves during the toolpath.
Note, for reviewing purposes, you can view the toolpath more easily by disabling
ROUGH_SCALLOP_CONTROL.
16. Select the Parameters tab.
