fusion 360 - manufacture and cutting

Post by fairlane65 »

I need to cut some parts that need to be bent. I have tried adding a slot on the "bend" line, but when I go to simulate the g-code run it consistently ignores my slots. Do I need to do the parts as a "sheet metal" design??

Your slots need to be wider, they must be your kerf X 2 plus a little or Fusion will not read the invalid cuts.
