Help in Pro/Manufacture

Hi:

I was using ProManufactue for defining a milling process on a ball
shaped surface. But I was not able to get the tool path generated. I
always got the failure notice that: UNABLE TO GENERATE THE TOOL PATH.

Can anybody please help me in this.

Thank you.
Regards,
Anni.

 

Was it a surf mill seq.? Was it a surface quilt you're trying to cut,
or was it a solid surface?
Could you be more specific on how the problem occurs?

Specify a top surface so that it knows what surface to plunge threw

 

How did you know it was a volume mill?
I've seen same exact error message on surface mill and other type of
nc seq. too.

I was just guessing. The error is the same no matter what happens, if
you don't define any of the many steps in a tool path it will error.
The reason that I guess top surfaces is he said he was cutting a ball
shape. But you are right it could be any amount errors.
