If by now you still haven't gotten a sort of clean toolpath, then you might want to look into some of the other settings or maybe try a different pattern.Ĥ. Learning the difference between the different types of links will help immensely.ģc. Adjust one thing at a time here and look at the results. This to me is one of the most problem causing sections of this type of operation. In addition to gouge checking, you will most likely need to adjust your links to smooth out the tool path and fine tune it's trajectory. Note: it may muck things up a bit if it needs to tilt outside of the your limits on the Tool Axis Control tab so you may have to jump back and forth. What this does is it will tilt the tool away rather than pulling up. In the strategy and parameters section of this tab, the first drop down menu is set to Retract Tool by default. So, limit to the cutting porting and the shank if you can. Note: gouge checking increases processing time the more things you are gouge checking to. Now for the fine tuning and gouge checking. Remember, there is a Help button in the bottom of the dialogue and the help should help clarify some of the things you don't know about.ģa. The pictures give you an idea and you will need to experiment with these as you go. But the 'Tool axis control' tab controls the majority of the tilting of the tool. If gouge checking is on, just turn it off for now, we'll get to that later. Next you want to deal with your tool axis control. Then generate a path and ask "Is this kind of what I'm going for?" If not, work with these parameters a bit to you get a basic pattern down that you want.Ģ. Try not to mess with the stepover, cusp heights, or surface quality for now. This guides in to out, out to in, sprial, climb, zigzag. From there maybe adjust your parameters in the 'Sorting' section. Start on the surface paths tab and set your pattern. Get a toolpath - As others have mentioned, just get a toolpath on the part before making the fine tuning adjustments.

Since I have a Eval license for the month for Edgecam, maybe I can help a bit.ġ. If you look up some video's on YouTube for either Mastercam 5 axis or Camworks 5 axis tutorials, you can get a little bit of a leg up from there.īut you are 100% correct, the 5 axis dialogue is quite overwhelming at first glance and until you mess with it a bit, it will remain challenging. And the real funny thing is all the pictures in the dialogues between the CAM systems is the EXACT same! So, in the grand scheme of things, the parameters in the dialogues are the same. So, I'm evaluating CAM systems right now and noticed that Edgecam, Mastercam, and Camworks(what we use now) all use Module Works' 5 axis toopaths.
