Thank you for participating in the preview for machine simulation inside of Fusion 360!
When using machine simulation, you will notice that all of our generic machines have the 'machine simulation' post-processor attached to them. This post-processor doesn't generate an output that is usable on the machine as its primary function is to allow for the testing of machine simulation.
When using a machine with a post-processor inside of Fusion, the posted code will use the kinematics from the machine configuration so it is critical that these kinematics in the machine configuration correctly match the kinematics on your machine tool.
Once you decide to use machine simulation for your machine configuration and also use it to generate machine code, we recommend carefully testing the code on your machine tool before running any production jobs.
Once you have your kinematics set correctly, you can choose a simulation-ready post-processor by choosing the open folder option next to your machine in the machine library:
Once you are in the post library, you can find simulation-ready post-processors by using the 'machine simulation' filter in the right-hand pane:
If you cannot find a simulation-ready post processor for your machine or you would like to update your post to support machine simulation, please follow the guide >>HERE<<
