This configuration can be used when the controller supports the commands G41 and G42 for radius compensation. Choose the desired configuration (postprocessor) at the top left:.In this example, these are all the contours in the drawing. Select all the contours that are to be processed with the same machining parameters and the same tool.The circle is not a polyline, and may have its start point at any point. With the function Select > Select All all start points of all contours can be highlighted (red): Here the center of the lower segment is selected:Īll contours are now ready for processing. This can be an existing node, or any other point on the polyline.
For our example, this is not the case for the inner contour (the red reference point is the start point of the selected polyline):īy right-clicking on the contour, the start point can be set to another position:Ĭlick on the new position of the start point. This must be a start point at which the contour can be approached using a lead in. All contours must have a suitable start point.In the first step, the polylines are created which represent the geometry that has to be cut:.Creation, Preparation and Selection of the Geometry
