Clean-up Machining
Leftover material causes extra handwork and costs time. Mastercam automates leftover material identification and removal, providing you with finer finishes.
- Run cleanup cycles on multiple surfaces, solid models, STL files, or any combination of the three.
- Hybrid leftover machining changes the cut method as the slope of the model changes – in a single toolpath.
- Constant Z rest milling (remachining) identifies and machines areas that need to be cut with a smaller tool, including automatically detected critical depths.
- Pencil tracing walks a tool along the intersection of surfaces to clean out hard-to-reach areas. You can perform single or multiple passes for precision cleanup.
- Steep/Shallow machining cuts only those regions of selected surfaces that have slopes between two specified angles.
