Application area:

To resolve issues with unsatisfactory toolpath quality in the normal direction relative to the surface, the calculation algorithm for the rotary finishing operation has been rewritten. See more

This parameter is located on the Parameters tab and allows running the old calculation algorithm when disabled, or the new one when enabled.

Benefits of the Updated Calculation Algorithm.

Enhanced Performance. The calculation process is significantly accelerated by distributing the computational load across all available CPU cores, maximizing hardware utilization.

Optimized Toolpath Smoothness. When the tool axis orientation is set to follow the surface normal, the resulting toolpath is notably smoother. Additionally, users can fine‑tune the smoothing effect by adjusting the Normal smoothing distance parameter. See more

Superior Toolpath Geometry. The algorithm demonstrates a marked improvement in toolpath quality when the Side Angle strategy is employed, leading to more efficient and precise machining.
