Toolpath Dialogs: New option included with every toolpath dialog for selecting or changing
cutter tool. This makes it possible to change tool for existing
toolpaths when using the recalculate function. (3X,4X,5X and 5Xtra)
Cutter Tools: Ball-end, flat-end, corner-end and taper-end cutters are listed
separately when clicking on the tabs for choosing type of cutter. The
cutters are listed in order of the diameter. (Largest cutters at top)
(3X,4X,5X and 5Xtra)
Toolpath Function: New option for the
Between Curves function it is now possible to choose
parallel or
across curves. If the curves are closed and the settings are
Parallel with direction
One Way, it will generate a spiral toolpath as in the picture below. (3X,4X,5X and 5Xtra)
5-axis Profiling: New option for gouge checking when using 5-axis profiling. Gouge checking can be "All curves", "Curve by curve" or "Off".
Curve by Curve gouge checking can be useful in some cases if processing many curves and knowing that there isn't any gouging in between the curves.
Gouge checking off can be useful if processing line curves, for example with saw blades. The default is
all curves. (5Xtra)
Post Processor: New option for postprocessor output from
Cplane origin. This makes it
possible to set the zero point for the output by placing a
Cplane.
(3X,4X,5X and 5Xtra)
Post Processor: Two new variables for the post processor. "cutter_tool_list" and
"machining_time". It is possible to get all cutters that are used and
the total machining time listed in the output file. (3X,4X,5X and 5Xtra)
