Radial Strategy for
Project Circular Pattern
|
Selecting the
Radial strategy for the Project
Circular cycle produces the type of toolpath shown here.
You can control the finish by specifying either a Planar
Distance, or a Stepover
representing the distance at the outer edge between adjacent cuts, or
the Step Angle between cuts. The
three options are mutually exclusive. |

When the Constant Cut box is
unchecked, the tool laces up and down the radial lines and links the ends
by following the inner or outer arc, thus producing a continuous path
to project.
When Constant Cut is checked, the radial lines
are cut in a constant direction (which depends on the Start
parameter). Finally, the Direction
determines which way to go around the feature.
