The ‘Machine Properties’ sub-section has two purposes:

Captures required additional properties - captures additional properties not stored in Fusion for [Local] machines; these values are used by CAM Assist to compute toolpath strategies.
Override values - enable you to override default values for the chosen machine with the values specified here.

‘Machine Properties’ contains five key values:

Spindle speed min
Spindle speed max
Spindle torque max (Nm)
Spindle power max (kW)
Table feed max

Chosen Machine type

[Generic] machines

If a [Generic] machine is selected from the ‘Choose machine’ drop-down, the ‘Machine Properties’ are populated with the default CAM Assist values. Any 'Machine Properties’ values that have been amended and saved here will replace the default values (see How to Change the Machine Properties).

While alternative values can be specified here (which will override the default values for the machine), it is recommended to create a separate local machine, in the ‘local’ folder of Fusion’s Machine Library, that contains the relevant property values.

[Local] machines

There are two Machine Properties that are not stored within Fusion’s Machine Library:

Spindle torque max
Spindle power max

These properties must contain a valid value because they are used for cutting parameters to compute toolpath strategies (see How to Change the Machine Properties).

Any missing values are shown in red and must be input then saved (for details, see How to Change the Machine Properties).

If a [Local] machine is selected from the ‘Choose machine’ drop-down, the ‘Machine Properties’ are populated with the values specified in Fusion’s Machine Library.

For all machines

Any values that are saved here are stored in the CAM Assist database and override the associated values specified in Fusion’s Machine Library (for [Local] machines) and the default values for CAM Assist’s [Generic] machines.

Any 'Machine Properties’ values that have been amended and saved here will replace the default values (see How to Change the Machine Properties).
