A cut width of 0.0 will generate a Rough and Clean cut that trace the same surface of the part. Number of passes must be greater than 1.ĭefine an offset from the part surface a clean or rough cut will follow to leave material for a clean cut to remove on a second pass. If a Final Pass is used, the Final Pass Depth is removed from the Actual Per Pass value.ĭefine a final pass with a different depth than the other passes. The default is automatically calculated from tool dimensions, but can be decreased to control the depth per pass.Ĭalculated from the Number of passes and the Final Cut Depth. Number cannot be set below the minimum value. The minimum number of passes is automatically calculated by the Max Per Pass value and the Final Depth. When surface depth is 0, Final Depth is the distance from the material surface. The depth of the cut measured from the surface depth. The distance from the top of the plate to the top of the design. The third part has a Rough, Clean, and Fine cut applied. This setup allows the Rough cut to remove material around the part and the Clean cut to finish the final cutout.Ī Fine cut can also be added which is intended to fit into corners and tight areas the Rough and Clean tool cannot reach.īelow is an example of the same part with 3 different strategies. The first cut is always defined as a Rough cut and the second cut is automatically defined as a Clean cut. The cut options are automatically determined by EnRoute based on the strategy type and cut order. There are 3 options, Rough, Clean, and Fine. Cut Typeĭefine how the cut will be generated relative to the geometry. Select a new tool from the list to change the tool used. Current Toolĭisplays the currently selected tool.
To edit cut parameters, select the ellipses in the edit column of the strategy dialogue. Fine tune each cut within a strategy using the following parameters.
