Project Toolpath Cycle

The Project Toolpath Project Toolpath Cycle command icon cycle finishes surfaces by projecting the toolpath from an existing cycle onto them.

The existing cycle:

With the toolpath defined by the existing cycle, the Project cycle defines the approach strategy and the depth parameters.

 
To use Project Toolpath

  1. Make sure that the last instruction in the current sequence is a cycle that conforms to the above conditions (you will probably specially create this cycle, using a profile related to your surface).

  2. Select the Project Toolpath Project Toolpath Cycle command icon cycle.

  3. Specify the parameters for the cycle and click OK.

  4. Digitise the surfaces for projection and then perform a Finish.

The toolpath is now generated.
