How Do I get it to machine the complete radius? SW CAM

I just can not seem to get the SW CAM to machine the curve in the attached part

it will do it part way down and then it will stop/END As shown in the Tool path Simulation screen captures.

I would like it to machine all the way thru the part.

Attached here is the part file : shape 49.SLDPRT (320.0 KB)

At first I had the R as a fillet but that had the same problem as I have here with a Swept Cut to form the profile. I Thought modeling it in a different way may help. But No. I Guess I’m doing something else wrong.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

try to ask your question here: CAD / CAM | Practical Machinist - Largest Manufacturing Technology Forum

I don’t used SWCAM, when HSMWorks was killed off I just now use Fusion 360 for CAM.

is there a setting for the tool to be outside the face boundry instead of tool center???

With you pointer I did figure it out, see below:
