5 axis Academy question

I am working on the 5 axis parts and have run into an issue with the Tool Orientation not being available. It seems to be a pay-for-play issue now as there is no box to check, just a pretty blue Icon that basically says pay up when you hover over it. Is there a work around or do I need to create new setups for each face? PITB if you ask me. How would each setup work in a HAAS 750?

Regards,
Brian Gracia

The free Fusion was always 3-axis only, you will need to add the manufacturing extension. It is a pay feature :frowning: UMC-750 use G54 for top of model centered XY, the G254, G255, G256, G257, G258 for a 4 sided square… Here is the code, I was machining a 2.075 Cube that has a stock that is 2.25" square and length of 3.00 long. I faced the top, then used contour to face the four sides.

Stephen, when the Academy first came online, my Fusion personal copy, did have Tool Orientation. I was able to follow and work on the 5Axis parts. Sadly, they changed it. Thanks for answering my question!
