High Speed Machining

HSM function described below have been specifically developed for constant scallop machining. Thus, TopSolid'Cam offers to modify the between each pass into a spiral section and to distort the machining tool path’s profiles to make it as ‘fluid’ as possible.

Link angle (>0° and <20°)

This field defines the spiral angle generating the between each pass (from 0° to 20° excluded).
