14:17 you can actually make an expression so you dont have to calculate it yourself by using this: tool_diameter/2+tool_diameter/10 so it will calculate half the tool diameter and add 1/10 of the tool diameter
Hi Titan, First, many thanks for all you have done to generate interest, especially to new comers into the CNC world. I have been subscribed to your channel since the beginning and really enjoy your videos. I have a 2007 HAAS TM-1P which I have owned since it was new and it has been a wonderful machine for a hobbyist such as myself to make parts/tools for R/C aircraft related items as well as Fishing Kayak items. I am kind of a self taught guy learning from experts like yourself that are willing to share their extensive knowledge. At the age of 71 the last 10 years have been very rewarding learning process. At the age of 61 I didn't even know what CNC stood for. Ha Ha Up until now I have used another CAD/CAM product but have taken an interest in Fusion 360 and watched a lot of videos on the subject. One of the big mysteries in Fusion 360 for me was assigning tool numbers from the tool library based on how they are loaded in the tool changer. I would seem to me that you setup (i.e. set the offsets for each tool) and load the tools for each individual job. I have a 10 position tool changer on my HAAS. I have certain tools that I tend to use a lot and leave them loaded in the tool changer. i.e. position 10 tool probe, positions 3 & 4 for various end mills, positions 2 & 9 for drills, position 7 for taps etc. My first part I programmed in Fusion 360 that I actually cut was a part that had to be machined on 4 faces. I made one sketch of the part in the model screen and then in the CAM screen I made 4 different setups, one to do the machining on each face. Of course, I had to reset the datum for each face and also re- probe the part each time the part was rotated in the vice. I had to change a few tools in the tool changer for some of the operations. This resulted in having multiple tools in the library with the same tool number on them. I just had to be careful that the correct tool was loaded in the correct tool changer position. Maybe, a good lesson for us novices would be to make a video on the tool library and how it relates to tool changer positions. It tool me quite a while to figure out where to edit the actual tool number. It turns out that the tool number was located in the (Post Processor) tab in the tool library. Once I found that all was good. Thanks again for all you do for the CNC community. John
Hey I just want to thank you for show this stuff, because of you I become a better programer and break cycle time down so I can make parts faster done.
Another great video from Titan. Really learning a lot from these tutorial videos especially since I am trying to setup and create a leaner and optimised working environment within our educational institute for our learners.
This video helps me a lot . Thank you. I have some questions regarding stock setup. Can we define stock material like Aluminium , En8, SS, Cast-iron etc. Please help me.
When finishing the contours on the 2D pockets the software on my unit doesn't want to link the 2 chains together, and trying to build them in seperate tool paths it doesnt like after stating "there is no link" and cannot plunge outside of stock. can anyone help with this?
That was my first look at cam software programming. Thanks for the great video and the clear explanations! 👍

I am currently in college (UK) working towards the cnc lines of engineering. Love the channel helps so much

Thanks for teaching 🙏
Great video. thanks, i gained some hidden information 😊
Love the channel helps so much

Great video. Thanks for sharing.
This is incredible, thank you for producing all of this content!
realy great video!
Boom
what is a good computer do cad , cam on cuz iv got a older one and dont know if is going to

I dont understand why mine is not calculating the outside at the adaptive claring. can someone explaing to me?
thanks for the video Titan
Caught an error. At 16:55, Titan says “three quarter”, but should be “three eighths”. Minor nit.
Thanks, will check it out
Why in mill face operation don't take in account an offset in Top Height option?
How do you will do if stock thickness is irregular?
Which software is this?
It’s Mastercam right?
Fusion 360
can run on laptop i5 8gb ram nvidia geforce graphics
Good
I am getting warnings on Chamfers (Warning: Lifting feed plane to topmost ramp. Warning: Lifting retract plane to feed plane.) ?
How did you decided as to what should be the spindle speed and the cutting feedrate for each operation and for each tool used???
I need a job
Can i have a translation to french or arabic pls!
BOME.
