Micro Milling

TP Creation

Micro Milling technology involves fields where smaller and smaller parts need to be machined with a high quality surface finish using tiny cutters.

The implementation in Cimatron is a toolpath type that is able to hold these special extreme conditions.

This mode of working creates quality toolpaths for small parts and tools working with extremely tight tolerances and low value input parameters. The available tolerances for Micro Milling are:

MM

0.0001

INCH

0.000001

Approach and Retract motions and all other internal constants are handled in a more suitable way and the results are smoother and more accurate.

  1. Load the micromilling.elt file.

  2. Create a new toolpath (TP) and mark the Micro Milling check box.

  3. Click OK.

If a Micro Milling toolpath is created, it cannot be modified into a standard toolpath, and vice versa.
