Also I think having Camworks is actually makes this work.
For example, if I want to make a 1/2" pocket and use a 1/4" endmill and remove 1/32" cuts, if you change it to 1/40" cuts, there's quite a bit of work in rewriting the gcode but in Camworks you just change the properties of the operation and it regenerates everything. If the work holding area needs to be increased, that is also an easy fix and toolpaths regenerated.
Having a subset of standardized tools + Camworks to make adjustments like above is key. |
