rest machining

Does Bobcad now have a process for 2d and 3d rest material machining?

Thank You

What version?

V2007 is now out and there are plenty of options. Rest machining can be done in a variety of ways.

Well if your looking to do just a Rest Machining Operation I would say, "No".

You can on the other hand create a Material boundary to do rest machining, but it takes a bit of effort.

Would there be a video on how to create a material boundary to do rest machining?

Would it take 10 seconds or 10 minutes to create a material boundary?

Thank You

I would say 2 seconds to create a Material Boundary, 4 seconds to create multiple Boundaries. But that would be a situation where your machining corners in a cavity or Pocket.

I believe that BCC is currently working on the Video Series for V2007 Mill and no idea when they will be completed.

One thing you have to consider is that the BCC Team and their Software Engineers aren't Machinists. So the Videos will be about the Basic Functions and How to Execute them, not really Machining. It will kind of depend on your imagination and know how in a sense.

Cheers!!!!!
