roughing options

[The Bruce]

suck !

 

Remember when we actually had options that didn’t always start in the middle of your work piece.

 Remember when we had [ core rough] [ area clearance] where you could actually start outside the box.

Remember when.

[The Bruce]

and don't even bring up dynamic optirough, that is a joke.

What is it with people, instead of asking a question and helping with their ignorance, they come in ranting and raving

 

You might want to ask how you "can" do it because you can

[The Bruce]

why fix something that is not broken.

What version are you using, X9?

 

What toolpath?

Are you needing to look at the first page and click 'from outside'...?

[The Bruce]

X9 MU 3 I think.

foot in mouth.

So, if you use Surface High Speed/Opti then it will automatically select inside or outside for you... but if you use Surface High Speed Area, then under Toolpath Type, on the right side underneath Containment Boundary, you must choose, the "From Outside" checkbox.

Ive only used up to X8, but going from X7 to X8 I had to re learn all the dynamic toolaths, they changed all the names and the way it worked.   The 1st time I went to do a dynamic core mill it took me a bit to realize that it was all there, it just had a different name.  Good times

You are correct. The X8 dynamic mill paths were better than the X9 optirough. At least X8 could process the depths correctly.

X9's new strategy for the Opti paths work so much better than X8.  The combination of the tool paths requires less work to get setup.

 

When switching from one tool path type to another, all the para's stick. So far I have not had any problems with these paths.

 

Everything works as it should.
