I'm un-able to find a problem when pocketing with any random value set in Cut-link distance.

Version: 5.0.2015.226

It's likely a high Offset variable in the tool's setting. Could be too high of a setting when creating the toolpath. Double-check the Step Size or Ramp Approach settings and lower them. Pocketing...

Hi Chris,

The first step in re-solving the 'restart' issue will require knowledge of every command issued through your controller when a 'restart' is executed. I suggest troubleshooting this with...

When illustrating the projected angles of the 60°/15° an angle of 29.7074902° is produced.

I see it now. Applying the 15° after the 60° changes the 60° to 60.8526°. I should have paid better attention to you earlier in the post.

I don't understand.

The measurement is 28.8791248°. That amount of precision is highly unlikely, use the value with caution.

The angle was produced with the model pictured below (UP, 60°, 15°).

This project requires a swarf tool-path to create a flat pipe surface for mounting at the 60°/15° angle. I assume the machine...

I understand and good to meet you.

Situation: aaronbee has a CNC cutter with a rotary headstock and the coping calculator he wished to use doesn't compute flat curves beyond a single angle.

For complex surfaces/solids: Smash (smash may provide inaccuracies and should be avoided for manufacturing).
