What's New?
New Functionalities
- Sequential Axial and Groove Operations
- Two new operations are provided Sequential
Axial and Sequential Groove in order
to define all elementary motions and PP word syntaxes to be applied
at each point of a machining pattern of holes or grooves.
- New operation to support 4-axis pocket machining
- This new 4-axis Pocketing operation
is provided in order to compute a tool path to mill a pocket on a cylindrical
or conical surface.
Enhanced Functionalities
- Tool compensation as Guiding Point
- New option Compensation
application mode: Guiding point/Output point is available on all
axial machining operations. Allows managing toolpath computation
according to the tool compensation point.
- Support of Helical strategy in Profile Contouring
- Helix tool path style is
now possible in Between two Planes mode.
- Helix approach macro
- When a cutter approaches raw material, a
new Helix approach macro can be used rather than a Ramping approach
macro. This capability is available in Pocketing and Profile Contouring
operations.
- Capability to manage machinable features in Manufacturing View
- Capability allows user to
sort and filter Machinable Axial features and Machinable Milling features.
Also user can now delete unused Machinable Area features.
