Slitting saw on a small pinion - simulation trouble?

Post by japrenticeuk »

Experimenting with a 0.4 module 10 tooth pinion.

I suspect the cuts are going to be OK but the simulation has them misplaced relative to the image of the finished gear

see attached screen which also shows tool parameters.

Hi John:

  Thx, previously noted, fix is in the works for Oct. The sim only is affected, the toolpath , as you suspect, will be fine.
(Well as fine as 4th axis can be for epicycloidals..).
