Path Profile/ru

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 Property view->Start Points.



Usage

 * 1) Select a face on a Part-based object. Alternatively, also select a starting edge on that face.
 * 2) Press the  button
 * 3) Adjust the desired properties

Options

 * The Path Profile object is made to be part of a Path Job. To correctly configure the profiling, a tool table must be present in the project's machine object, and a Tool Change command must be placed before the profile.

Properties
 Note : Not all of these Properties are available in the Task Window Editor. Some are only accessible in the Data tab of the Properties View panel for this Operation.

Base
Note: It is suggested that you do not edit the Placement property of path operations. Rather, move or rotate the Path Job model as needed.


 * : Overall placement[position and rotation] of the object - with respect to the origin (or origin of parent object container)
 * : Angle in degrees applied to rotation of the object around Axis property value
 * : Axis(one or multiple) around which to rotate the object, set in sub-properties: x, y, z
 * : x axis value
 * : y axis value
 * : z axis value
 * : Position of the object, set in sub-properties: x, y, z - with respect to the origin (or origin of parent object container)
 * : x distance value
 * : y distance value
 * : z distance value
 * : User-provided name of the object (UTF-8)

Depth

 * : The height needed to clear clamps and obstructions
 * : Final Depth of Tool- lowest value in Z
 * : The above which Rapid motions are allowed.
 * : Starting Depth of Tool- first cut depth in Z
 * : Incremental Step Down of Tool

Path

 * : make False, to prevent operation from generating code
 * : An optional comment for this Operation
 * : User assigned label
 * : Defines the Tool controller used in the Operation

Profile

 * : The direction that the toolpath should go around the part: Clockwise[CW] or Counterclockwise[CCW]
 * : Controls how tool moves around corners.
 * : Extra value to stay away from final profile- good for roughing toolpath
 * : (Cut Side) Side of edge that tool should cut. This only matters if `Use Compensation` is True(checked).
 * : If checked, the Profile Operation is offset by the tool radius. The offset direction is determined by the Cut Side.
 * : Check if you want this Profile Operation to also be applied to cylindrical holes, which normally get drilled.
 * : Check if this Profile Operation should also process holes in the base geometry. Note that this does not include cylindrical holes.
 * : Check if this Profile Operation should also process the outside perimeter of the base geometry shapes

Rotation

 * : Automatically attempt Inverse Angle if initial rotation is incorrect.
 * : Visually orient B(y) rotations to model (error in FreeCAD rendering).
 * : Enable rotation to gain access to pockets or areas not normal to Z axis.
 * : Inverse the angle of the rotation.   Example: change a rotation from -22.5 to 22.5 degrees.
 * : Reverse orientation of Operation by 180 degrees.

Start Point

 * : The start point of this path
 * : make True, if manually specifying a Start Point, then enter Start Points in the property data Start Points field
 * : extra length of tool path before start of part edge
 * : length of straight segment of toolpath that comes in at angle to first part edge

End Point

 * : make True, if specifying an End Point
 * : extra length of tool path after end of part edge
 * : length of straight segment of toolpath that comes in at angle to last part edge
 * : The end point of this path

Extras, Not-in-use, or Degraded

 * : make True, if using the profile operation placement properties to transform toolpath in post processor
 * : Tesselation value for tool paths made from beziers, bsplines, and ellipses

Tasks Window Editor Layout
Descriptions for the settings are provided in the Properties list above. This section is simply a layout map of the settings in the window editor for the Operation.

Base Geometry

 * Add: adds selected element(s) which should be the base(s) for the path(s)
 * Delete: delete the selected item(s) in the Base Geometry list
 * Clear: clear all items in the Base Geometry list
