PostLibrary.createQuery Method

Demonstrates the creation of a basic milling workflow from a script: creating a setup, searching the tool library to retrieve a tool, creating machining operations and an NC program, and preparing them for post-processing.

Use the 2D Strategies model from the Fusion CAM Samples folder as your CAD model.

Manufacturing Workflow API Sample. This sample script starts by creating a simple component, which is then used to describe a milling workflow. It creates a setup and a few operations, picks tools from a Fusion sample tool library using loops and queries, and post-processes the operations using an NC program.

Demonstrates posting toolpaths in the active document using an NC program: import a post configuration from the post library, choose which setups or operations to include, set NC program and post parameters, and run NCProgram.postProcess.

Before running: Run from Scripts and Add-Ins with a design that contains at least one CAM setup with toolpaths. The script prompts for what to post (all setups, first setup, or first operation) and optionally opens the NC file when complete. It may offer to switch to the MANUFACTURE workspace.

Turning Workflow API Sample. This sample script starts by opening a simple component, which is then used to describe a basic turning workflow. It creates a setup and a few operations, picks tools from a Fusion sample tool library using loops and queries, and post-processes the operations using an NC program.
