Profile Geometry

SolidCAM enables you to define a user-defined boundary based on a Profile geometry. All the HSM strategies enable you to use closed profile geometries. The Boundary machining strategy enables you to use also open profiles for the boundary definition; this feature is useful for single-contour text engraving or for chamfering.

SolidCAM automatically projects the selected geometry on the XY-plane and defines the 2D boundary.

The Geometry Edit dialog box enables you to define the geometry.
