    Hello

    I can’t find a description about how to write a free contour for a powered tool.
    I had a 3 day training but we did not learn about that topic..

    Many thanks in advance

    Good evening

    On a programming course you DID NOT talk about free contour programming????

    Quite simple, have a look:
    - M processing
    - axial processing
    - M contour
    - Roughing or finishing

    On the symbol picture you can see a milling machine that mills the outer edge of a work piece. That also shows the whole topic. You can only mill a free contour onto a plane surface. And only this one possibility exists…..

    See you
