    Default Featurecam Machine Simulation Problem.

    Hi.
    I have been using Featurecam recently and have found the Machine Simulation keeps giving me an Error.
    It say's Warning:Machine not valid for 5 axis simulation. The machine should have 2 degrees of rotational freedom.
    Unexpected simulation may occur.

    Could anybody please help me.

    Default Re: Featurecam Machine Simulation Problem.

    I don't have featurecam but my guess is you have not selected the right machine type when you started in the CAM software. Most CAM software requires you to select the type of machine prior to selecting the geometry and generating the gcode or simulation. FeatureCam might have a default three axis machine selected unless you change it so that would cause an error. Check the machine type and make sure it is a five axis type machine, then create some gcode and test your simulator.
