blade fillets with tapermill

[S.MCINTOSH]

I need some help. I am trying to finish floor fillets on a stator blade and want to use a 5 degree tapermill. I am new to this and have not been able to find a good toolpath.

Any suggestions?

Got a sample file? What Level of Mastercam? What Version of Mastercam? What kind of Machine and how many Axis does it have all make a big impact on how someone could or would answer this really in depth tricky question.

 

Ask TK about doing this and see what he says?

I am using X6 with a DMU70 machine, full 5 axis. I can get through the surfacing but I want to use multiaxis to basically just contour the fillet of the blades with a 5 deg tapermill. We do many different types of blades, some can be finished on profile as well as the fillets at the same time with a standard ball end mill. I would rather use a tapermill for the tool strength but they would have to be done with multiaxis toolpaths. I am new to these toolpaths and could use some help. There is a sample of the blades attached.

Thanks for the response.

How about something like this?

 

Also I moved this to the main forum, it's not a machine or cutter question but a "how to" Mastercam question

Yep thats it. Thanks. I just need to dig into your parameters to figure out how you set it up.

Thanks again for the help.
