Hello, I am looking for a solution to a problem that occurs during face milling with an insert-type cutter. A tool of this design cannot enter the material with a vertical plunge movement, because this causes collisions between the cutter body (where there are no cutting inserts) and the workpiece material. Despite enabling the collision avoidance option, toolpaths are still generated with colliding movements. I would expect the toolpaths to be trimmed and arranged in such a way that machining

How would I go about creating this tool as a resource. When I worked on CATIA, I could just make a sketch which CATIA would revolve for me. I can't seem to find that option in Shop Floor Machining.

After today's update, 3DEXPERIENCE keeps crashing whenever I try to delete any geometry using the delete button – regardless of the operation. This issue is happening on multiple PCs, not just mine. At this point, the software crashes so frequently that I can’t continue working. I urgently need a solution or workaround. Has anyone else experienced this issue, or is there an official fix?

Hello, I am trying to do a demo with RE-USE for a customer. It can perform 3-axis or 2.5-axis machining, BUT I cannot do 5-axis simultaneous programming. How can I do this? Can NPX perform 5-axis simultaneous machining?

Hi, master ^^ My customer has used the HA0.PCD.RLD.200 (SWISS Tools System) turning tool set. This turning tool features a compound bevel design for insert assembly. In the 3DE turning tool setup, the top surface of the insert is parallel to the XZ plane. The customer intends to use this HA0.PCD.RLD.200 tool for simulating physical cutting operations. Could you please advise: Whether the simulation can be performed normally? Are there any precautions that need to be noted? Your expert guidance

Hello, while performing the turning operation I can see the video analysis result, but why can’t I see the material removal simulation? @NY @AC @NK @HSÇ

Hello, I have a manufacturing process with three phases: Turning 10, Turning 20, Milling 30. When I simulate from the manufacturing program, everything goes well for all three phases. When I simulate a single operation (or a group of operations) or after editing an operation, accessories and tools change positions or appear (see photos). Is this a known issue? Or is this a bad approach on my part? Simulation after editing an opération Simulation after editing an opération (ph20)

The "Simulation time" includes the "Specified time" for tool changes, which is set to a default of 5 seconds. This time can be modified for each tool change via "Advanced edit," but this is an unnecessary repetitive task. The default "Specified time" for tool changes should be a machine property, configurable during machine setup, similar to the "Rapid feedrate."

I have a 6mm chamfer mill and a 3mm chamfer to cut. I can use curve following, but it leaves a small edge uncut. I would like to do a couple passes to cut the chamfer, but can't seem to figure out how. I have tried all the contouring passes, Z level, and even tried to call it a pocket, all to no avail. I am open to suggestions. Thanks!

When I click "switch to edit mode" on a part, the machining wizard goes away and I am unable to re-enable it. Even if the close the current manufacturing cell and create a new one, the wizard is no longer accessible. Please advise on how to re-enable the wizard (I assume this would be exiting edit mode??) without having to close and restart the app. "Switch to edit mode" Wizard is gone.

When I import a machine using the "Import and Mount Resources", I got my library and click on my NC Machine so it get's added the current manufacturing cell. It then takes me to this screen with informational popup that says "Click any of the icons in the context toolbars or select resource rom the PPR tree or from viewer" -- Can someone please explain to me what this means? What do I need to select and why is it asking me this? Thanks!

A PowerCopy is a set of features (geometric elements, formulas, constraints and so forth) that are grouped in order to be used in a different context, and presenting the ability to be re-specified according to the context when pasted. This PowerCopy captures the design intent and know-how of the designer thus enabling greater reusability and efficiency. This page aims to explain how this capability can be leveraged in DELMIA Machining. In 5-Axis machining the stock material often serves as the

One common problem in five axis machining is that in some cases it´s not possible to drive the tool along the programmed trajectory without changing the machine configuration along the toolpath. Usually this causes a large angular variation in one of the rotational axes of the machine. These movements can cause damage to the part and/or machine if not detected and corrected. This page aims to explain how DELMIA Machining can help to detect and avoid this kind of issue. Scenario: In this example

Hey all, I’ve been running a few custom plastic fabrication jobs using DELMIA Fabrication for CAM programming, specifically targeting our Haas UMC-750. The machine itself is solid, but I’m running into a recurring issue when generating complex 5-axis toolpaths in DELMIA—particularly with undercuts and deep contours on plastic molds. The simulation looks clean, but post-processing and real-world machining don’t always match up—tool orientation seems slightly off, and I occasionally get small

Hi all, I have a prospect interested in the NC Shop Floor Programmer role (NSR-OC), which is included in SW2-OC and other SOLIDWORKS packages. Does this role allow users to export a report (like a PDF document) based on the CAM setup with shop floor instructions such as tool usage per step, material information, machining time, operation sequence, etc.?

Highlight For Roughing Modes, Longitudinal, Facing and Parallel Contour, this highlight provides a bi-directional tool movement (One way or Zigzag). With the Zig-Zag option, toolpath patterns suitable for latest turning inserts can be obtained. Available in NC Prismatic and Mill-Turn Machine Programmer and NC Mill-Turn Machine Programmer roles starting R2025xFD03.

I capitalize a tip / methodo after a question from @LL about the vizualisation of milling and drilling tool assemblies when you assign its on a lathe turret (by default Laurent expect "static" tool assemblies as it is in the shopfloor => virtual twin)

I'm working with my VAR, but I'd like to leverage the power of this community to hopefully gain some insight. I have a very common process that we do: machining on the 4th axis rotary, then an additional set-up in a vise on the same table, in the same program. If I do all of the work on the rotary and then add the vise set up as a "SET-UP", then the vise part will move with the indexing of the rotary, even though it is mounted to the machine. Weird, why does it ignore the mounting hierarchy

Hello everyone, I don't know if this is the right post for this, but for programming I often use the measurement tool, especially to measure angles between surfaces. I have a problem when I want to measure an angle between a hole (its axis) and a surface. As shown in the following image, I get different values for each measurement, and never the correct one here: 90 degrees. It seems to be between an axis and a plane (I didn't have this problem in V5). Is this a setting to be made? Does

This wiki is especially done for new people who start to develop Post Processor. The information read by the Post Processor to generate the NC Code is the APTFILE generate by DELMIA Machining.

In 2025x FD02, a new option "Synchronize with Grid" has been introduced for 'Anchor' and 'Perforation' features under 'Wire Supports' Shape. This option enables synchronizing and maintaining a even distribution of anchors and perforations along the grid walls as seen in the video. This helps in better heat distribution, stable support to the part and easy breakage and removal of support. This is supported in Additive Manufacturing Engineer, Powder Bed Programmer and Specialist roles.

To generate the NC code you have to set several information in the 3DEXPERIENCE according what is the expected outut (APTFile on G code) and who is the Post Processor provider . I have summarized in the ppt the workflow and where to set the key parameters
