Here you can choose the machining direction.

"Direction for One Way Machining" is only possible in the "One Way" cutting method.

The clockwise and counter clockwise options are not for the spindle rotation. They are used to determine whether the tool should move around a closed surface model in clockwise or counter clockwise direction.

Ccwise:

This operation demonstrates a counter clockwise machining.

Cwise:

Here the tool has a clockwise machining direction.

Climb:

The tool movement and the tool rotation have the same direction.

Climb milling is preferred when milling heat treated alloys. It causes chipping in milling hot rolled materials due to hardened layer on the surface.

Conventional:

The tool movement is opposite to the tool rotation.

Conventional milling is preferred for milling of castings or forgings with very rough surfaces.
