I blame my stupid question on being a girl. Just kidding. I blame it on a lack of machining experience. I performed a draft cut of a part tonight with the .125 flat end mill. It looks good. When I swapped it out for my .032 ball end mill, I began thinking: won't the taper where the end mill meets the larger shaft that goes into the collet cut into my part? The part is deeper than the .032's reach. Am I condemned to only machining parts within the end mill's reach or with a curve or a step or is the MDX software smart enough to know it's going to cut in and avoid that area? Help! |
