Vertical Finishing in YZ

 

Using the MCADTPC.dwg file, select the XNURBS_CUT-ZIGZAG_YZ Cycle.

 

Select Slice Settings to be sure the Slice Vertical Angle is set to 90.0.

 

NurbsYZ_Angle90_Main

Press the 'Cut' Button.

 

The output of these settings should produce a tool path like this:

 

Nurbs_YZ_Example1

 

The settings used are finishing settings.  There is no Stock Allowance used.  There are no roughing passes, lead-in, or lead-out.  Also Containment and Recutting are turned off.  Each of those setting will be explained, just a little bit later in this document.

 

The main purpose here is that you understand how the YZ slice creates a basic tool path in the Y and Z direction with step over in X.
