Using the Planar faces machining strategy to automatically generate the roughing of all the planar faces of a part with a complex shape.

Each planar faces defines a different level which is then machined by applying a strategy of machining.
Two kind of machining are applicable according to the topology met at a given level:
Facing and open pockets are machined in successive contouring,
Pockets which are machined in spiral mode
The calculation made by TopSolid'Cam, takes into account the state of the stock left by the previous operations.
Select the menu "Milling | 3D operation | Planar faces machining" .
If there are several parts, select the part to be machined.
Select the tool (or change tool) which can be used for the machining operation.
Specify the different parameters in the tab dialogue box which appears.
Enter the comment which appears on the machine block listing meant for the NC operator. This comment will also appear when the user wishes to take a look at or modify an operation, using the Operation/ Operations Manager function.
Eventually, enter a codified remark which will be interpreted by the post-processor, in a specific manner predefined by the user and the post-processor redactor.
Validate entries made into the dialogue box by clicking on OK.
