We can't use solids in our Mastercam so when we import the part from Solidworks we end up using it to create a wireframe. I then create a surface using the wireframe. When creating the multiaxis toolpath I use the created surface as my 'tool axis control'. To solve my problem here today I just didn't extend the surface on the east and west side of my part like I normally do. Sometimes when I don't extend the surface it will create a funky path but today it didn't. I'm limited as we use Mastercam X7 and Robotmaster V5. Both very out of date but not willing to update at the moment.

Now I feel like the surface has something to do with it. If I extend the surface a bit more it changes how that deviation looks.

Unfortunately didn't fix it. Thanks though. Super frustrating as it's causing a slight movement of the robot while cutting and I can't have that.
-
Thanks, but that didn't change it. For reference, the deviation happens on the 'west' operation shown in this screenshot

Here's my file. I'm trimming along the edges (extended the surface edges to simulate scrap metal). SAMPLE.MCX-7

While creating a tool path of evenly spaced point I get this weird deviation. Anyone have any experience with something like this?
