And it is here, where we see the next improvement in PowerMill 2022 – namely improved toolpath accuracy. In most cases, this is best achieved using a Flat Finishing toolpath (either Rasteror 3D Offset). In the previous PowerMill update, Autodesk discussed excluding flat areas from Steep & Shallow toolpaths – but these areas still need to be machined. Instead, PowerMill simply calculates a toolpath with the flat areas removed – simple! This small, but significant update means programmers no longer need to spend time creating separate boundaries to limit the machining. PowerMill 2022 includes a new option to exclude flat areas during toolpath calculation. PowerMill’s most commonly used feature – finishing toolpaths (Steep & Shallow, Raster, and 3D Offset Finishing) has been improved to simplify the programming of parts containing flat/planar areas. Finishing Toolpaths now Exclude Flat Areas In this blog, we’ll provide a brief overview of the major highlights as well as offering links for those that want to learn more. Following recent releases, this specific update includes a healthy mix of fixes, improvements, and new capabilities aimed at simplifying the daily life of CAM programmers around the world. The Autodesk PowerMill development team has just released the latest update to Autodesk’s CAM software.
