The guide focuses on creating a toolset tool library for a single material, aluminum, which means that all preset names start with “Aluminum”.
If you’d like to set up a different material, simply replace “Aluminum” with any other workable material.
CAM Assist will use suitable Fusion defaults for missing parameters such as cutting data presets, stepdown and stepover values for all recognized tools in a toolsettool library.
However, you may choose to configure all parameters within Fusion.

After completing the guide, you'll have a toolset tool library that contains the following:

CAM Assist works best on medium to large toolsets tool libraries with well organized feeds and speeds. While you can use CAM Assist with a small number of tools, the system will try to make the best of the limited available options, which often results in something unexpected.

Unless you know exactly which tools are needed to machine a given part, it’s not recommended to use CAM Assist with small toolsetstool libraries. |
CAM Assist’s ‘Tool Use’ tab provides a streamlined, at-a-glance, view of ‘allowed' materials and usages (operations) for each tool in the selected toolset tool library (for details, see Tool Use).

If you get stuck at any point while reading this guide, remember you can compare the your toolset tool library with the built-in sample tools to help understand the difference (see the General tab).
