  1. I want to use a key cutter with dynamic motion for an undercut part geometry. Is there a way to have the shank "keep away" while still using the correct cutting diameter in the tool definition? Help!!
  2. Hi all, Please see my attached picture. Its seems that my cutter will ride the edge of the cavity, which i wouldn't want to happen. Any suggestions? I always have a hard time with Lollipop Endmills and blends. What i have done in the pass is extrude the top face up 0.002" and then add the the surfaces created to the Drive surfaces and avoids what is happening here. But for some reason when i tried doing it now, on this program, it gives me a wacky toolpath.
  3. I'm programming a part that has a few nubs cut around. Some of them generate an undercut. But the undercut tool (0.031 Lollipop) keep plunging on the side of the part. Any idea why? I've been messing with settings for over a week, to no success.
  4. We currently are working on a part that has a 25 degree undercut bevel. We are trying to use a slot mill with corner radius to cut from the top down using the top edge of the cutter. The only way we can make it work is to lie to the computer and tell it that the cutter has a full radius, and when we send it to the machine have the z-height of the tool set the difference deeper. Is there an another way to cut with the top edge, and if so how? the tool path we are using is a 2d- swept
  5. Hi everyone, I need some help to implement a rough operation on undercut by surface contour feature (at least I think that is the right feature to be used). The T-slot mill has a cutting diameter of 80mm, a flute length of 4mm and a shank diameter of 25mm. The undercut has obtained by a 3D-sweeping of a cross section along a 3D off-plane path. I am attaching an image of undercut design and relative mcx file. In the level 5 there is the geometry of containment profile. The output is somewhat uneven and blurred. Where am I wrong? Any suggestion or tip is welcome. Thanks a lot in advance. UNDERCUT-IMAGE.bmp SF-TOOLPATH-5X.MCX-6
