HD63812: MACHINING (AMG): THERE IS AN UNDERCUT IN ROUGHING

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• MACHINING (AMG): THERE IS AN UNDERCUT IN
  ROUGHING OPERATION
  .
  1. Open .CATProcess
  2. Select Manufacturing Program.2 and Compute
  Tool Path,
  Forced computation
  3.Do replay the Roughing.2 operation
  4.The switch Optimize retract is on, but there is no
  tool retract
  movement optimization.
  5. Switch off Optimize retract
  6.Switch on Optimize retract
  7.Do replay the Roughing.2 operation again
  8.Now there is tool retract movement optimization.
  9. Perform video simulation
  10.The clamp has been undercut. ﾨ THIS IS THE
  PROBLEM
  .

Problem conclusion

• THIS PROBLEM WILL BE FIXED ON CATIA
  VERSION 5 RELEASE 18 GA level.
  NOTE THAT THIS PROBLEM WILL ALSO BE
  FIXED ON V5R17SP06.
  .
  Incident Diagnosis
  Collisions with Part (or Check) appears on a
  SMG-Roughing Link trajectory, when
  toolpath is re-computed without modifying
  geometry.
  .
  Correction Explanation
  This is a particular case in which 'Automatic
  Safety Plane' is badly managed, and Link
  comes in collision with Part (or Check).
  .
  

Temporary fix
