Choosing the tool for the Chamfer Drilling Operation


SolidCAM searches for the tool in compliance with the pre-defined tool type and angle. The search is performed in the Part Tool Library in the diameter range from the value of sum of the Hole diameter and Constant till the difference between the next segment diameter and Constant. The Constant is equal to 1.  

In case of absence of a suitable tool, SolidCAM defines a new tool with the pre-defined tool type, angle and minimum possible diameter (Hole diameter + Constant).
