Summary


Details

Problem with Floor Wall operation where tool end radius is equal to blend radius of part geometry. An operation that generated correctly in NX 11.0 now gives poor result and gives error: 
'The requested output contact failed. The moves will be output as centerline.' 



Solution

In this case, loosening the default intol/outtol from 0.03 to 0.1 allowed the correct toolpath to be created without error.
