Turbo 3D HSR module

SolidCAM’s Turbo 3D HSR is a very powerful HSR module for quick and faster calculations than the normal HSR module. It offers unique machining and linking strategies for generating high-speed tool paths. This 3-Axis calculation engine recalculates the tool path at a lightning speed. Its 64-bit architecture completely utilizes all the cores for tool path calculations.

SolidCAM’s Turbo 3D HSR module is simpler with limited parameters and advanced gouge checking strategies.

The HSR strategies (Hatch, Contour, and Rest) remove large volume of excess material rapidly and leave a small amount of stock for semi-finishing and finishing strategies. The biggest advantage of these strategies is that the tool path contours are always collision free while machining.

 Ensure one of the below conditions is fulfilled to define a Turbo 3D HSR operation:

  • If stock model is not defined, then the operation must have a constraint boundary else the tool path cannot be generated.
  • If the part has open pockets or an open geometry either a stock must be defined or a constraint boundary must be defined.

THSR Hatch, Contour and Rest

This section enables you to define the type of the operation. These strategies are used to machine large volume of excess material quickly and leave a small amount of stock for semi-finishing and finishing strategies. These strategies can be used to create a rough component from a rectangular or core shaped block.

Parameter pages

The parameters of the Turbo 3D HSR operation are divided into a number of subgroups. The subgroups are displayed in a tree format on the left side of the Turbo 3D HSR machining operation dialog box. When you click a subgroup name in the tree, the parameters of the selected subgroup appear on the right side of the dialog box.

Geometry - Choose geometry for machining and define the related parameters.

 

Tool - Choose a tool for the operation and define the related parameters such as feed and spin.

 

Levels - Define the Clearance area and the machining levels.

 

Constraint Boundaries - Define the boundaries.

 

Passes - Define the passes parameters.

 

Link - The Link and Default Lead-In/Out pages enable you to define how the Turbo 3D HSR cutting passes are linked to the complete tool path.

 

Gouge check - The Gouge check and Clearance data pages enable you to avoid the tool gouging of any selected drive and check surfaces.

 

Machine Control - Define the parameters related to the kinematics and special characteristics of your CNC-Machine.

 

Miscellaneous Parameters - Define a number of miscellaneous parameters and options related to the tool path calculation.
