Operation

 

 

 

Since the 7.7 version, this function is replaced by the virtual jog which allows to make manual movements and also lots of other simple operations (dwell, direct block, Pp remark, .....)

 

 

End

Manually define a linear trajectory between several points, for example, to contour an obstacle, define a linking movement between two operations or complete a type of mouse surfacing.

 

Example of classic movements on top of part during interoperation

Example of manual add of movement on point during side pass interoperation.

 

Operation

The movement on point is a MANUAL function. The operator has full control over the trajectory and its quality. It has the same characteristics as a classic milling operation and is automatically inserted at the end of the range when it is created. It can then be moved to the range using the mouse.

 

Operation   

 

From the "Annex" menu, select Movement on Point.

 

An icon bar appears to the left of the screen.

 

To define the various passage points, click the geometry button and to select points. The cutting conditions are identical for all selected points.

To add additional points, click the icon. You can also define a specific feed rate or work plane or return to tool change point using this option.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Select the tool to use

 

By default, if the previous operation tool can be used, it is reused for this operation (the name of the tool appears in the graphic area next to )

 

If the previous tool is not suitable or if this is the first operation, you must select a tool to validate the operation ()

 

 

Select a "preset"

 

Instead of modifying n values, this option allows you to restore (or save) values that have already been entered.

 

Define Cutting Conditions for Operation

 

Use this icon to modify the cutting conditions of the current operation.

 

 

Define or Add Geometries to Machine

 

Use this icon to select (or remove) machinable geometries.

 

 

Define ISO File Settings

 

Use this icon to define which comment to use for the ISO code or to decide which inclined plane matrices to use.

 

Define colinear axis

 

This icon is available only if the current machine has colinear axis.With this icon it will then be possible to choose the axis drives by the operation.We also can choose the Z value of the fix axis.

 

Define Operation Properties

 

Use this icon to define whether you would like to update the stock or calculate the result later.

 

 

Confirm

 

To confirm the current operation,

pressing this icon

to right-click outside the window and use the "OK" menu

 

 

Cancel

 

If you wish to cancel the operation, click this icon.

 

 

 

 

To modify the order of the passage points for a movement on point, move the tops of the geometries to the milling range.
