"Tool Path" Drive Method in NX CAM

Today I will demonstrate practical way of using Tool Path drive method in NX CAM.
This drive method is available in Fixed Contour and Variable Contour operations. It allows us to use other operation’s tool path as drive geometry in other operation. 4-axis roughing, which I will create, is just example application of this drive method.
The purpose of this video was to explain how to use “tool path” drive method, so keep in mind, that it is not the only way of doing 4-axis roughing in NX. We can also use for example Rotary Floor operations dedicated for 4-axis roughing. But Rotary Floor operations have some limitations in Cut Pattern types comparing to what I did here.

Excellent ! Best example of Tool Path drive method I have ever seen. Good Job

[@NCmatic]

Thanks :)

[@andypcguy1]

I'm learning to program NC code in NX and this video was very helpful. Well done, Thank you!

[@asokanshanmugam7086]

Very good explanation with clear voice in English, unforgettable 👌

[@sinanocalan4959]

Wonderfull video.Pratic approach.Well done.

[@pearlbluesoul]

Thank you! Very useful, just getting started and this was easy to follow along with. 👍

[@Tresoroeffnung]

great video. please make more...

[@drishyalismArtist]

can you show how nx can work on a 3D profile? I have a broken helical profile ...but don't which operation to use

[@audicad4807]

thank sir.

[@yasin7271]

thank you

[@kaleemkhan4114]

Please upload some videos about multi axis face drilling by nx with machine simulation.

hi can this method be made on walls tant
o? if i want to put a different dia
tool?

How to make the toolpath run out when the machining area is larger than 1/2 of a circular cylinder

How to project the tool path on a non cylindrical face?

[@vasudevarao4754]

Sir, the Video is Excellent and Useful and i have a Problem in NX12 Manufacturing .........instead of Check Surfaces total Solid is Getting Selected while in Selection Mode of Check Surfaces.....Please Do the Needful.

[@wjimenez0883]

Can this method be used with Adaptive Milling as the source pattern?

[@NCmatic]

Yes, it should work identical way. But obviously it makes sense only for single level (depth-of-cut). If auxiliary operation will have multiple cut levels it will all be projected to the same surface.
If I would need several cut levels, I would create them in separate operations.

I do everything on the video. Already loaded the flat trajectory. but a lot of axial trajectory is not what is not ... Help please.

[@ibrahimshareef4743]

Sir I want this 3d part file.
Please mention it's link.

[@manishanjara970]

Hi can you please upload all nx menc files to dropbox

[@musthafamusthafa5487]

I want to nx11 5th Axis programming

[@Whhhoo3_3939]

do you have any other solution like wrapping toolpath>>>????????????

[@yonatanperesoso]

me podría ayudar

[@manjunatamanjunata934]

Compare other software nx is very low stage softwear
