Machine simulation

The machine_simulation parameter enables you to define the name of the CNC-machine model used for the Machine simulation.

Example:

machine_simulation = Topper_TB

The parameter value defines the folder where the appropriate model of the CNC-machine is stored. This folder is located in the Directory for Machine simulation definitions defined in the Machine simulation settings.

Consider that the Directory for Machine simulation definitions is the following:

C:\Users\Public\Documents\SolidCAM\SolidCAM2021\Tables\MachSim

In this case, the data of the CNC-machine Topper_TB mentioned in the example above is located in the following folder:

C:\Users\Public\Documents\SolidCAM\SolidCAM2021\Tables\MachSim\Topper_TB
