    Angry How do I make the dotted lines sync with the green curve?

    Hi, I've just started Mastercam 2019. Right now I am having an issue with plunging(or it may be). Does anyone here knows how to perfectly sync the dotted lines with the green tool path( or I hope that it is a tool path)?

    Default Re: How do I make the dotted lines sync with the green curve?

    The 2 ways to "sync" the items
    1.. is to have a zero radius on the tool... (not practicable)
    2.. have cutter comp applied to the path... (additional problems will develop)

    There is no problem with what you currently have... it is showing the adjusted path of the tool with nose radius to give a correct shape..
    the path shown is of a sharp (non-radiused) tool, that has the nose radius touching the contour.

    You mentioned plunging... direction &/or distance can be adjusted with the "lead in/out" settings.... in conjunction with what geometry is selected.
