I have little experience with multiaxis machining and I am struggling with a simple swarf milling. The surface i want to mill is the following:
I have tried several sequences. With swarf milling sequence the tool does not seem to follow the surface:
I can´t make trajectory sequence work...
I have done in the past some nice toolpaths with cut line milling but in this case i can´t get gouge free paths...
Any help would be greatly appreciated..
Some cross sections of the part:

Are you sure the surface can be machined with the tool side?
There are some concave looking areas - is there always a straight or convex path through each point on the surface, so that it can be machined?
Hi, you wish to machine this surface only with the side of the tool?
Yes, only the side

I think so. PTC is looking into it and the case has been reported to R&D...
It can´t be machined the way i wanted.... it is not geometrically possible.
