Profile Projection

Allows machining by projection of one or more profiles on the model. The profile to be projected is arbitrary and may include sharp angles.

• The machining will respect the shapes projected onto the solid.

• 2 types of toolpaths:

  • One follows the profile in center tool

  • The second one creates a perpendicular sweeping.

• Only one toolpath

• Machining of slot: no interference due to the solid quality
