Having issues with HSM Rough, Parameters are set up for Rough Only, Constant Load, Step Over .03 , Max Step Depth .625
Issue with this is it still wants to do a full retract when the tool path starts to work in corners. Instead of doing a small tool lift.
Any suggestions or solution's would be appreciated.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Also set
MIN_RETRACT_DISTANCE 8
8 inch or some other large number
That seemed to solve my issue, Thank you!
I am using 5020 and cannot find this option in my parameters.
Where is it ?
I did have the same issue that you are having. No luck with the HSM Rough. I reverted back to using a Roughing tool path or a Volume Rough tool path using a constant load, Min_Retract_Distance will be in there and so far have had good success with this.
