Machine Simulation Issue

[eliot15]

Using GibbsCam 11.0.18.

In earlier version of Gibbs when I ran machine simulations as a horizontal machine with a rotating B pallet, the tools would move and the part would rotate.

Starting with Gibbs 11.0.11 or so, now the part is MOVING and rotating a the tools a stationary. Anybody know where the secret check box is to get the tools to move and the part to stay still and just rotate.

Thanks,

Bob

Before start sim in simulation icon select right button and choose --- op simulation--

If I chose Op Sim, the part doesn't rotate, the tools "rotate" around it. The part only rotates when I run it in Machine Sim. But if I run the part in Machine Sim, the part moves in X and Y instead of the tooling.

Thanks for the reply though.

Yes right.
It depend of MDD that you select because you could say that X is in table or is in Head .
If you say me machine that you are looking perhaps could help you.

I think this is a bug with the new versions of GibbsCAM. I have the same problem.

In Machine Sim, even if you choose POV Lock to "Tool Rotary Axis", it will still lock to both Rotary and Linear.. I can't figure out how to fix this.

Did you try Lock Point of View to Part(machine Sim)
Lock Point of View to Fixed Part(Op Sim)
