What to do with pocketed characters in models to be engraved?
Hi everyone, I am wondering what you all do when you have pocketed letters like in the image I attached and you only need simple stick characters to engrave a single line?
I am sure there is a simple trick or method one of you MCAM experts use to deal with this. Usually I just put stick characters over top and try to match the style but I have hundreds of numbers to engrave this time. Thanks
Use the engrave toolpath.
If you take the tool deep enough to ride on both side rails, it will center up your cutter. It will also clean out the corners. Just turn off the roughing and do the finish.
Using the Engrave toolpath I was able to window chain the geometry.
Hope this helps.
