Details

Operation: Cavity Mill

Subtype: Undercutting        Tool: T-cutter

In order to allow undercutting in the operation, Tolerant machining needs to be Turned Off. 
But, While generating this toolpath the following warning is received.

"Facet Bodies can only be used with tolerant machining"

Solution

The solution is to use a modeled solid body instead of bounding box as a blank in the Workpiece Dialog.


  1. If the Blank is selected as a Solid Body in workpiece => toolpath will be generated.
     2.If the Blank is selected as a Bounding Box in workpiece => Facet Body is created internally => error                 message as per rule.
