Stock updating

As the update of the stock can be long in some case (3D parts with lots of tool path!), the user can decide here as he wants to have the stock update.

Here, we speak about the stock update of the stock defined in the workpiece. Of course, in all the case, with the "Verify" menu of the operations manager it's possible to see the result.

No

There is no update of the stock.

Of course, if the user makes another roughing, TopSolid'Cam is able to take into account the tool path already done before this new roughing even if the stock is NOT updated..

Yes

For each movement of the tool path, TopSolid'Cam makes a ParaSolid boolean operation in the stock to remove the material an update it. Of course, it can be long!

Quick

In this case, the stock is updated quickly. With this solution, TopSolid'Cam doesn't make all the boolean operations. TopSolid'Cam calculates appreciatively the area to be removed with the operation and remove it from the current stock.
