Reducing feedrate in corner

[stonker]

Good morning boys,

I am programing a contour which has some pretty small inside corner rads. Is there a way to reduce feed on those arc moves only? I have been manually editing the g code after posting and would like to eliminate the xtra work.

Thanks in advance

Have you tried the High Feed Option?

Rich,

In the Job Setup you can check the adjust feed on arc move. You can also set a minimum feed for the arc.

You can also right click the .NCI file in the operation manager. That will bring up your toolpath editor. Many changes can be done from within there.

You can also use the Change at Point option in the chain manager

You can also "right click" on you countur in the operation manager, then ajust point, pick a corner and it will popup with a box that give you a option to change the feedrate + some other good stuff.

Thanks for all the advice but I was unable to figure out how to get any of those methods to achieve what I want. Could someone please go a little more indepth with one of the suggestions.

Stonker, right click on your NCI file of the toolpath you are editing in the ops window.

 

When the toolpath editor opens up you will see your toolpath backplot on your screen ontop of your drawing.

 

You will also see the editing box pop up.

 

Click your mouse on the the part of the toolpath in the main window where you want to change the feedrate.

 

Observe the editing box in the field that says "points".

 

(Go in the direction that your toolpath is going and start with the first radius.)

 

Toggle the up or down arrow on the points field until the endpoint on your toolpath is at the start where you want the feedrate to change.

Click edit.(notice how the points change color)

 

On the right menue will pop up and choose edit point. Another parameter box will come up and let you change stuff. One is feed.

 

I havent done it very much but you can see where I'm going with this.

 

I think in there somewhere, there is an option to change feedrate from "point to point".

 

HTH
