7 Tool Path Standard

Today, let us know tool path standard.

1. First tool path coding standard -

Rough machining process to metal materials:

If diameter of micro end mill exceeds 0.5mm, you must use slant-plunge way.

Plunge angel is 0.5°~1°.

Usually, the harder materials, the smaller angle is.

2. Second tool path programing standard -

Set cutting data:

Please reference to cutting data table according to different machine tools.

3. Third toolpath standard -

Calculating tool path:

While calculating, we should form good habit, such as adopt graphic centering function, avoiding toolpath dislocation caused by output origin.

4. Fourth tool path standard -

Don't define sintered tools name at random!

While computing tool path, carbide cutter name should be consistent to geometric configuration.

5. Fifth tool path programming convention -

After designing tool path, use analysis function to avoid over cutting phenomenon.

6. Sixth tool path standard -

Adopt interference checking function after calculating tool path.

Or else, too short router bit clamping length may cause interference of screw nut or motor end face.

7. Seventh tool path programming standard -

To improve toolpath average efficiency, reasonably distribute cutting data and residues in different procedures;
