Hello, I do machining on DMG Mory (CMX50U = 5 positioned axes) and I have SCHUNK equipment for the installation of my parts.
I want to do the CAM of 2 separate parts with for each a 3-axis milling phase and a turning to finish the part.
I have at my disposal: Zero Point, Pyramid and SCHUNK Vice. of which I made an assembly called: multi posage,
I have created copies of my 2 parts to configure them in their respective machining phases and I put them in position as they are in the machine.
I declared the 4 pieces in the CAM shape tree,
I have associated for each piece the rough that corresponds to it.
All this is OK.
The creation of the different tools: OK
When I create my toolpaths:
Part 1 = OK (all machining is done well)
I add Part 2 (same part as part 1 but turned over) = OK (all machining is done well with 90° rotation of the table)
Part 3 (new part) = Ok / not OK (machining on part 2 is done well but I lose tool paths in part 1 on the 2 placements) => ???
what happened for SolidWorks CAM to decide to remove machining...
In addition, it generates shapes and configurations for me without necessity.
I admit to being perplexed. The different origins are consistent with reality.
I don't know how to attach the complete folder (37 MB) so that you have the files to see what I did (for good or bad).
Thank you in advance for your answers.
Hello and welcome alestrelin,
Sorry I can't answer your question, because for machining it's really very far in my experience...
But I'm sure someone will find the solution.
Good luck to you.

AR.
Personally no knowledge of the CAM part, it seems to me rather very specific as a problem and difficult even for a specialist to answer it with a simple image.
If you are under maintenance, I strongly advise you to make a request to the hotline of your reseller (Visiativ?), who will be able to assign you a specialist capable of taking control of your position and answering you in a much more precise way.
Indeed, probably the best thing to do. Also avoids wasting time.
= report the bug to Solidworks who will create an SPR and bury it in less than a year.
The nice thing is that in 5 updates you will be able to send back exactly the same bug to Solidworks so that they can make a new SPR that they can link to your old one (and that they will bury again...).
The infinite cycle of life.
Stay Zen
For the curious: SPR 1232391 and SPR 373815
Maybe not a bug but a bad use if the bug is effective at least you are fixed. And in general the fixes are fast 
(but less than the production of new bugs!)
