3D Toolpaths can tackle complex challenges and geometry, these are some key tips to help you be more efficient in programming with them.
The Pick-Off Cut-Off routine automates all of the part-handling operations necessary to cut parts from a long single bar of material. The routine manages clamping of jaws, advancing of material, stock material definition, and spindle movement. Depending on the capabilities of the machine and the type of stock, select the routine that matches your needs. When a cutoff is required, define the cutoff width or select a tool and the part cut-off toolpath is included. A wide range of options exist for handling parts inside your lathe.

Stock models help to visualize in-process machining operations and to verify the result of the program. Learn stock model best practices
