Samples

Name Description
Create Setups From Hole Recognition API Sample

This sample script demonstrates how to create a correctly oriented setup using Hole Recognition functionality.

The Fusion Manufacturing Extension is required for Hole Recognition.

The script starts by opening a sample model from the CAM Samples folder via its URN. The model comprises a 3 way coupling containing holes in various orientations and mounted on a fixture. A reference setup is created for the model using a simple stock mode and offsets. The Hole Recognition feature of the Fusion Manufacturing Extension creates 5 hole groups containing 11 holes between them. For each unique hole group vector captured, a new setup is created and its orientation transformed to match the vector.
