In this training video, we will start applying tool paths to our part using OneCNC Mill Advantage. We'll explore both 2.5-axis and 3-axis tool paths, focusing on performing a roughing operation, planar finishing, and Z-level finishing.
Key Topics Covered:
Introduction to Mill Advantage Tool Paths: Learn about the capabilities of Mill Advantage, including 2.5-axis and 3-axis tool paths.
Applying Z-Level Roughing Tool Path: See how to define a tool, set clearance planes, and configure roughing parameters.
Simulating Tool Paths: Understand how to simulate tool paths to visualize and verify machining operations.
Planar Finishing Operation: Discover how to apply a planar finishing tool path to remove material from the top of the part.
Z-Level Finishing Operation: Learn how to use Z-level finishing to remove material from the sides of the part, using different approach styles and boundary settings.
