I could just give up but half the fun is figuring a way around the dilemma. Automatically compensating for the cutter diameter and ensuring gouge free parts off the CNC machine. High quality 3D finishing cutterpaths are calculated in seconds. The rough machining strategy includes options for profiling at each z level to reduce uneven loading on the finishing cutter. The Vectric site says:įast and efficient Z Level rough machining removes unwanted stock material quickly and easily, leaving material on the model for the Finishing toolpath to remove. The slicing software appears to reduce the size of the sections but within those sections still runs in true three axis 3D mode. All software is available and supported through. The Gerber only makes simultaneous moves in the x and y axis. The machine runs on OMEGA Software (Composer, ArtPath, etc) and MFront.
I guess I still would like to know if this software would work in a 2 1/2 D mode. I've looked at the Vectrec software and the Artcam software.
