Radial machining

The Radial machining strategy enables you to generate a radial pattern of passes rotated around a central point.

 

This machining strategy is most effective on areas that include shallow curved surfaces and for model areas formed by revolution bodies, as the passes are spaced along the XY-plane (step over), and not the Z-plane (step down). The Z-height of each point along a radial pass is the same as the Z-height of the triangulated surfaces, with adjustments made for applied offsets and tool definition.
