So I have programmed in fusion 360, tool paths do exactly what I want. Then take out to MR1 and it does not do it. Crashes
Not much info, but would think a zero or tool offset problem.
Definitely need more info to determine a cause.
Tool offset would be a possible problem, but it’s hard to offer a solution without much to go on.
I’m new to Fusion but have been programming as a profession for over a decade with other software. I’ve seen my fair share of head scratchers from post errors to bad simulations.
Shoot us some more details and I’m sure one of us here can reach a solution for you.
I agree that tool offset could definitely be a cause. Also check the heights tab to make sure you selected the correct top and bottom heights. Incorrect depth of cut and stepover can cause a crash. Don’t ask me how I know, I broke two endmills yesterday due to this last issue. I think it was the 1/4 end mills fault , cause all I was asking it to do was plunge .625 deep into the part and cut at 40 IPM. Next time I’ll soak the end mill in some protein powder and a bowl of Wheaties, that should make it stronger.

Any Progress. Did you figure it out?
I am having similar issues. With me it is definitely not a offset issue. It is acting like it is loosing steps or counts from the beginning. I ran the same model with a different post to a different machine and it works fine. I am running just a basic rectangle and contouring and facing a very conservative amount. It is looking like the machine is not centering the model inside of the stock even though it is set up to be centered without an offset.
Another issue is that when I use the 3 point corner touch probe, the coordinates do not match when I manually go and slowly jog the probe over manually and touch off. there is a .062 in difference in what is being reported
Nothing appears to be bound up on the machine. I haven’t been able to make anything but chips since I finally got it put together after overcoming a few quality issues with tram, wrong parts and faulty drives.
I am going to reset the controller to factory defaults and reinstall the software. Maybe something got corrupted along the way.
I just went out and reset the travel compensation values under the machine settings that I had set up previously to the default settings. I reinstalled cut-control and ran the same post. I zeroed the Z axis above the cutting plane so not to destroy anything. As a basic observation, the profile looks like it is following what I would expect and much closer than before. I am thinking that when I updated the software that the travel compensation values did not translate well with the post processors due to something being in conflict. I am going to run the program to cut later and hopefully this has solved the issue.
Pretty sure it’s my programming, I think the offsets are wrong. back to you tube to watch more video’s
Delete any compensation travel values you set and start over. Also if you bought the collet from Langmuir, throw it away if you are doing heavy machining. Hit or miss on the Z crash
