When using an adaptive/high speed machining tool path, make sure that the minimum radius for movement of the tool is a reasonable number (10% or more of the tool dia.).
When doing the final clearing pass you can also use plunge roughing at the corners if you cannot go to a significantly smaller diameter tool than the corner radius. > On Sep 10, 2022, at 6:33 AM, Jérémie Tarot <silopo...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Le sam. 10 sept. 2022 à 11:55, Nicklas SB Karlsson <n...@nksb.eu> a écrit : > >> Then pocket milling with tool engagement less than tool diameter for >> some patterns tool engagement increase to tool diameter in the corners >> or ends.
