Step 2 - Tool Axis Control

Tool Axis Control

1. Duplicate the procedure and edit the new procedure.

2. Select the Tool Axis Control tab and change the Tool Axis to the Be Tilted Relative to Cutting Direction option as shown below:
   

3. Set the lead anglelead angle to 15.

   

   

4. Execute the procedure.

   The original setting of the tool axis was fixed and normal to the faces. (Tool axis direction = face normal at touch point.)

   Positive Value = lead angle (tool leans to the movement direction).

   Negative Value = lag angle (tool leans away from the movement direction).

5. Save and calculate the procedure. Switch to a Side view and simulate (Wireframe Simulation) the two procedures to view the results.
