hello. i have a flange that i want to cut with a 3.2mm end mill
so i need to activate g41/42 in lazycam for each shape... but using "leading settings " button will make the offset look like in the photo
how do i make just the g41 / g42 offset in the drawing without leadins....
Hey There,
what I would do is don't use select leadins, LC is alittle flakie,but works for me and I use it most of the time,it just takes alittle fiddling with to get what you want. What I would do is reload your .dxf clean, optimize, relayer, select multiple, and then set the start point,you have it at the center of the large hole, see how many chains you have and mov,if you want? I would do the center hole, the bolt holes and then the outside profile, if you have LC Pro you can do tabs to hold the part. If all else,send me the .dxf and what you want and I'll try to help. bossproductionathotmaildotcom Hank S.
so. if i don`t use leadins how i gone compensate for the tool diameter?
Hello,
What you would do is use offset for you tool diameter. I gather you don't have LC pro. You could draw your .dxf 3.2 mm larger for the offset.this would compensate for the offset you need. Also remember the cut line is the center of the tool., so your diameter will be half that of the cut path,(ALSO) inside and outside are different,so adjust accordingly. Hank S.
i know about the half of the tool distance offset .. i think for simple drawings i will insert the g41 /g42 manualy and do the job.
