Mastercam MultiAxis Flow, Parallel, and Morph on Day 2 of Ron Week!

Day 2 of Ron Week, lets go!!
Todays video Ron takes us through 3 finishing toolpaths for this part.
5 Axis Flow - This is used on the middle faces of the part and is again applied to the simplified model created earlier. That little bit of extra work up-front is again paying off in better toolpaths. A true flat bottom endmill should be used on an application like this to get an accurate surface.
MultiAxis Parallel - Here, Parallel is used to face the sides of the part. Where you see a feature that could use a 2D toolpath, Ron shows you how a MultiAxis toolpath can be applied and reasons why you may want to use it instead.
Morph - Ron uses Morph to cut the fillets on the corner of this part and takes us through many options inside of this toolpath.
In between the toolpath creation, Ron again shares his Mastecam and machining wisdom on the how and why he's doing what he's doing. Also, keep in mind this entire part is being toolpathed from only the solid, no extra wireframe is created to generate these toolpaths.

More to come!

Спасибо , супер 👍

[@ipadize]

could you not just patch the holes and pockets or is this not the same?

[@CamInstructor]

You could but I think a uniform solid will create a smoother toolpath than many surfaces, specifically when you get into the flow paths. Also, creating the surfaces will take some more time as you may need to create some wireframe geometry. Using surface covers will help though if that's the path you want to go down instead.
