4 Axis roughing standard is a 4 axis simultaneous roughing operation. |
Key Points
|
This new operation enable to rough any shape using the 4 axis simultaneously and applying standard offset toolpath. The toolpath starts out of the material in case of open machining area.
To avoid a too long calculation time, we advise you to define carefully the mini and maxi diameters of machining, in the strategy page.
This operation cannot be computed on a mesh model! |
