Flat Face Finish

cbl149-20230207-123458.png

GO2cam researches the topological areas where the slope is null, and apply a 2D pocket cycle to these areas.

Key Points

This cycle is a complement of cycles working on Z levels.

  • This finishing respects the Z allowances on the flat faces by applying the same allowance than the one defined in the previous cycle (roughing or finishing done before).

  • This cycle must be avoided before the complete machining of vertical faces to prevent the milling cutter from encountering excessive material. Consequently, a roughing operation, a finishing operation, or a 2D contouring must be programmed prior to this cycle to prevent tool breakage or marking of the vertical faces.
