Finish profile at finished depth at same cut

[TFesta]

Good Morning, I'm using MC9.1 and am cutting 24 scallops in a big 304SS part. Leaves the wall .110 thick. What I want to do is finish the outside profile at the same time when I take the final depth cut. What is does now is it finishes the depths and takes a finish pass on the outside profile. I think it works in pockets but not in contours.

Isnt the "machine finish passes at" - final depth what your after ??

"All depths" is the default setting.

 

 

PEACE

No, cause it finishes the depth 1st and then finishes the profile. I want to finish the profile at the same time when it takes the last depth cut. I want to finish the profile while I still have the bottom stock holding it rigid. I guess I would have to break up the scallops into 24 op's or edit the NC file removing the 1st finish depth pass and letting the finish profile and depth pass take over.

toolpath editor, delete pass is your answer.

Yeah Roger that works. I just have to edit it 24 places. I never though of toolpath editor cause I have only used it twice. Thanks for your answers.
