Creating a Roughing Routine for The Toolpath
To create a roughing routine click on the Roughing Options tab. You will see to the right in the graphics
that the cutter steps over 3 times at each level and finishes at each level. In this example the number of
passes is 100 the same number as in the finish options. The tool number is the same.
The “Amount to Rough” is the approximate amount of stock that is on the walls of the port to machine. In
this example the cutter will take two passes at approximately .150 and a third and final finishing pass of
.025. This roughing routine will rough and finish as it works its way down the port.
Once the tool path has been defined while under the “Program” tab the next step is to click on the “Tool
Path” tab. At this stage the software calculates the proper pivot points and movements the machine will
need to perform to define the tool path. The software will also warn you if there is a potential crash at a
particular cross section.
To simulate the tool path set the appropriate tool active. In this case tool #26 is the tool we defined above
in our tool path so this is the one we will set active
