Examples: · ·

2 Blank (stock)

Box around the partPart bounding box plus a margin Blank from a fileA separate STEP, or a DXF outline plus a Z height

Margin Sides X/Y Above part top Below part bottom

3 Machining

2.5DZ-level clearing between blank and part, landing on every flat floor; optional wall and floor finish Full 3DZ-level roughing plus parallel raster surface finishing (STEP part only)

Roughing cutter

Cutter type Diameter (mm) Stepover (mm) Stepdown per level (mm) Feed (mm/min) Plunge / ramp feed (mm/min) Spindle RPM Direction Entry into closed pockets Ramp angle (°) Wall allowance (mm) Floor allowance (mm) Stock left for finishing (mm) Run roughing

With an allowance above 0, roughing leaves it on the walls/floors and a finishing pass follows with the same cutter.

3D finishing cutter

Run raster finishing Cutter type Diameter (mm) Stepover (mm) Scallop height (mm) Raster angle (°) Tolerance (mm) Feed (mm/min) Plunge feed (mm/min) Spindle RPM Area Passes Add cross passes at +90°

Controller not yet confirmed: output uses only G0/G1/G17/G21/G90/G94/M0/M30 (and M3/M5 if ticked). Z is the tool tip. Always dry-run above the work first.
