More on Port Machining

Controlling Stock Engagement

Toolpath overlap is uniquely controlled through PowerMILL’s fi nishing strategies. Where two machining operations meet deep within the port, tool deflection could occur. With Port Machining you can control the position (A), length (B) and tool blend transition values (C), ensuring hand finishing is not equired in the most diffi cult areas.

Collisions Avoided Automatically

Intelligence built into PowerMILL not only checks the cutting tool defi nition against the Port model, but adjusts the tool to a safe position, this gives confidence to the machinist that every program is collision free.

Faster Machining

Point Distribution allows the redistribution of programmed points to reduce machining time and improve surface fi nish, through even tool loading and therefore less vibration. This facilitates modern 3 and 5 Axes machines tool controls which can handle large amounts of data.
