Properties of 5 axis finishing

 

Type:                                  it indicates the finishing type. It can be:  flowline or projection.

 

Sinking:                              it indicates the depth the piece can be machined at starting from the maximum Z. If this value is higher than the piece dimension it is machine completely otherwise it is machined up to the specified dimension.

 

Cordal E.:                            cordal error is the tolerance coefficient which has to be applied on the surface of the piece during finishing.

 

Optimize:                  if enabled it optimizes the machining passes avoiding passing with the tool path over already machined areas.

Advanced properties.

 

Pass Distance:                    it indicates the distance in XY between each tool pass. In kits with holes it means the distance between the hole centres. It can be set to automatic mode for leaving the calculation of the default distance to the software.

 

Lead-in:                              It specifies the type of entrance that effects the tool in to draw near to the piece. It is considered only for kit with flowline mill, it can have the following values:

 

vertical:                        the lead-in is executed vertically;

tangent:                       the lead-in is executed with a lenght straight line (Lead-in Lenght) that is tangent to the path lead-in point;

dir. Router:                   the lead-in is executed with a lenght straight line (Lead-in Lenght) that has the same direction of the router;

perpendicular:             the lead-in is executed with a lenght straight line (Lead-in Lenght) that is perpendicular to the pass.

 

Lead-in Lenght:                  it specifies the distance at which the tool is before approaching the piece and starting machining.

 

Connection:                        it indicates the connection type carried out between one pass and another; it is taken into account in the flowline milling cutter type; it can be:

direct:                           a geometry is inserted that traces the shape of the surface and connects the passes;

tangent:                       it draws a straight line with lenght (Connection lenght) that is tangent to the pass lead-out point and a subsequent straight line that is tangent to the next pass lead-in point;

dir. Router:                   it exits with a straight line with lenght (Connection Lenght) that has the same direction of the router and connects to the next pass in the same way.

perpendicular:             it exits with a straight line with lenght (Connection Lenght) that has a perpendicular direction to the pass and connects to the next pass in the same way.

vertical:                        it exits with a vertical straight line with lenght (Connection Lenght) and connects to the next pass in the same way.

 

Connection Length:            it indicates the connection length between two consecutive passes; in case of direct connection it is not taken into account.

 

Lead-Out:                           it specifies the lead-out type that the tool executes when going out of the piece. It is taken into account only in kits with flowline milling cutter; it can take on the following values:

vertical:                        the lead-out is executed vertically.

tangent:                       the lead-out is executed with a lenght straight line (Lead-out Lenght) that is tangent to the path lead-out point.

Dir. Router:                  the lead-out is executed with a lenght straight line (Lead-out Lenght) that is equal to thr router direction.

perpendicular:             the lead-out is executed with a lenght straight line (Lead-out Lenght) that is perpendicular to the pass.

 

Lead-Out Lenght:               it specifies the distance to which the utensil is found after the leaving by the piece.

 

Direction:                           it indicates the direction of the machining path; it can be longitudinal or transversal with respect to the guide line of the surface. It is taken into account in the kits with flowline milling cutter.

 

Movement:                         it can be ZigZag, OneWay or One Cut, it shows if the passes can be in both senses (ZigZag) or only in one way (OneWay) or just in one time (OneCut).

 

Division:                             the surface machining can be subdivided into two parts, according to the selection carried out which can be transversal or longitudinal. It is taken into account in the kits with flowline milling cutter.

 

Start:                                  it indicates the machining starting point. It is taken into account in the kits with flowline milling cutter.

 

Min. longitudinal:                it is the percentage from which to begin to longitudinally work the surface. He is considered in the kits of cutter type Flowline

 

Max. longitudinal:               it is the percentage from which to finish to longitudinally work the surface.He is considered in the kits of cutter type flowline.

 

Min. transversal:                 it is the percentage from which to begin to transversally work the surface. He is considered in the kits of cutter type flowline.

 

Max. transversal:                it is the percentage from which to finish to transversally work the surface. He is considered in the kits of cutter type flowline.

 

Direct calculation:               when enabled it forces the program to carry out the calculations relating the machining path at the supplement stage. Otherwise the software does the calculations only when the user selects the Apply command in the machining control.
