![]() To run a simulation, right-click on the turn set up and, on the right, click menu select simulate toolpath. STL stock for CAMWorks is very useful for machining something that is a work in progress inside of the toolpath simulation. To select a sketch stock, select the second option, and if your sketch is a valid profile, it will appear in the list of available sketches. The image below is an example of a sketch to be used in sketch stock. Similar to how SOLIDWORKS revolved parts are created, the sketch stock will take a profile whether open or closed, and spin it on an axis to create a solid. Revolved sketch stock works by creating a sketch parallel to the part profile. The following image is an example of the cored strategy bar stock. With these, you can create a cylinder that can encompass your part to represent your real-world stock. The Bar stock parameters and Offset parameters give you the option to modify the bars' outer diameter, inner diameter, back of stock absolute, diameter offset, and Front and back offset. Cored removes material from the inside as if the cylinder had been drilled.Solid will be a solid cylinder that the part is inside of.The choices available are solid and cored. The Strategy will let us choose the state of our bar stock. In this selection, we have several options available to us. Similar to how bounding boxes work, bar stock creates stock that is the smallest size of a cylinder the part can fit inside of. This will also apply to Mill Turn machines as they create the same stock. ![]() ![]() ![]() In this CAMWorks tutorial, learn how to create stock profiles for turning machines. ![]()
