Hello
Has anyone have a idea on how the cut a half ball contour on a 3 axis cnc router. If possible the program should be parameter based. For example inputting the cutter diameter, step depth, diameter of ball, feed rate, roughing cycle followed by finish contour. I have seen a program that dos a ball hollow. Its a very clever program, but the inner workings of the program is way above my head. Any help or pointers will be most helpful, as I have only a very basic knowledge of CNC Programming. It needs to be able to be understood by Mach 3.
Thanks
Paul
