Facing Pocket

cbl168-20230207-123458.png

Sweeping toolpath applied on faces and pockets. The profile must be closed profile, it can also be the stock directly.

Key Points

  • GO2cam automatically determines which is the best sweeping angle according to the selected face of solid.

  • with Rotating Machining: the toolpath is optimized by giving a rotary toolpath which reduces the rapid retracts, with still the respect of machining direction.

  • Pockets avoidance: either the facing toolpath is calculated so that it avoids the pocket, or it goes through the pocket with Fmax value.

New behavior of the option Z repeat, that enables to repeat exactly the same toolpath from a Z step to the next one and use subprograms.

To be available, the toolpath must be:

  • 2 ways direction

  • with adjusted pass.
