Path Contour/de

Description
The Contour tool creates a simple external contour cut of complex 3D Part-based objects. The entire Job Model serves as the input for the Operation--regardless of whether any Body Geometry is selected when the Contour command is invoked. A Start point can be enabled from the Operation editor, using a location defined in the  →

The Path Contour object is made to be part of a



Usage

 * 1) Press the  button, or  →   from the top menu.
 * 2) Adjust the desired properties

Base Geometry

 * Add, if not allready done, the elements which should be the base for the path
 * you can also delete or change to other elements

Depth

 * : Starting Depth of Tool- starting depth in Z
 * : Final Depth of Tool- lowest cutting level in Z
 * : Step Down of Tool- the amount of material which will be removed at once

Height

 * : The hight above the workpeace where rapid motions are allowed.
 * : The height needed to clear clamps and obstructions

Operation

 * : Defines the Tool controller used in the Operation
 * : Defines on which side the cut should be done
 * : Specifies a CW or CCW move for the cut
 * : Addet to the tool diameter to leave some material for a finish path
 * : Set the start point of the path manualy (not implemented jet)
 * : Creates a path with offset of the tool radius to respect the parts dimensions
