7.7.1 Toolpaths
You must use your CAM software to create a toolpath for your design. Vectric Vcarve Pro
features a drag-knife tool path gadget which is pre-installed.
To find out more about creating toolpaths with Vectric VCarve Pro please see Section 8.2
Knowledgebase, page 17.
7.7.2 Blade offset
Blade offset is the distance between the point at which the blade cuts to the point at which
the blade rotates.
Most CAM software can accommodate for blade offset which needs to be entered
manually. The value is normally between 0.25 and 0.1mm. If your blade offset is set
incorrectly, you will not achieve sharp corners where required.
To find out more about
blade offset please see Section 8.2 Knowledgebase, page 17.
7.7.3 Retract height
You will need to set the retract height to reflect the amount of travel set in Section 5,
page 8.
