dzrong Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 PPmac need Surface-Normal Vector for Three-Dimensional Tool Radius Compensation,but as far as i know CAM can't us this information,such as UG. Which software of CAM can give us this information? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curtwilson Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 CAM software vendors have told us that they must write a custom post-processor for each controller's 3D tool-radius compensation algorithm. However, every 3D algorithm we have seen must provide information about the surface normal vector and the tool orientation vector somehow. It is basic to how these algorithms work.
