Optirough crashes into defined stock


Programinator
 Share

Recommended Posts

So i have a stock model that i am referencing in an optirough toolpath.  I can't get the path to not plunge down into the stock.  As you can see from picture.  It plunges down at start of green arc and then feeds on the yellow.  I have all the settings correct and mastercam should be able to do the leading with plenty of space off the stock.  but it will not do it..  Why is this doing this.  I ran the same toolpath on a mirrored part and it worked fine.  Any suggestions?

I took a look at the file for Programinator. This looks like a unique issue with concave part geometry which is causing a reverse leadin/leadout curl back into the stock volume, that is then not trimmed properly to avoid the plunge gouge. Tolerances/boundaries/stock model/entry settings/tools/skip pocket settings are not at fault here. I sent it on so someone can take a look and see what's actually happening.

Interesting. I have seen a fair amount of opti-rough issues, but that sounds like a first.
