The post setup in Fusion 360 has changed completely since the last time I used it, and the post processor for Carbide 3D doesn’t seem to be working. It simulates without problems, but when I try to Post, I get the following error:
Error: Failed to evaluate post configuration.
Error: ReferenceError: createOutputVariable is not defined
Error at line: 108
I wonder if there’s some error in how you’re saving it from github? Anyway, here’s a copy of it, just change the extension to .cps: carbide3d-crpalmer.zip (28.3 KB)
I was finally able to get it to post with your (Neil’s) post processor that I found elsewhere on this site. However, I’ve had to scale all dimensions by 1.04 to get the drawing to match the part. Here’s my file with the scaled dimensions. Any clue why the scaling?
Not surprisingly, I was wrong about the scaling. Some dimensions were off, but not others. I must be doing something wrong in the pocket operation. I’m starting to feel like an idiot here.
Rest assured there are plenty of other members of that club…
From a quick look at your file, it looks like the only toolpath in there is an adaptive clear with 0.02 inch stock to leave, could that be your dimensional error? If so, a finishing contour is probably what’s missing.
