high speed machining tool inside the window

[asifcad]

Hello, I have a question about restricting the tool within the milling window in high-speed machining (HSM), similar to volume milling. I would be very thankful if someone could share any sample files of HSM.

Check your Allow_entry_outside parameter on your HSM step:

• If you have this parameter set to yes, then the mill window settings (outside, on, inside) are basically ignored, and the tool movement is seemingly unrestricted.
• If you have this parameter set to no, then the tool will be restricted as you would expect from your mill window choice.
