Choosing the tool for the Reaming Operation


SolidCAM uses tools of Reamer tool type for the Reaming Operation.

SolidCAM searches the suitable tool for the operation according to the following criteria:

  • The tool must be of Reamer tool type.

  • The Reamer Diameter of the tool must be equal to the Reaming diameter defined in the Technology solution (hr_segm_diameter).

The search is performed in the Part Tool Library. If a suitable tool is not found, SolidCAM automatically defines in the Part Tool Library a new tool according to the tool definition in the Technological solution.
