Shear Specific Parameters
Cut Parameters
SCALLOP_HGT together withOVERLAP_DIST, can be used to control the next tool position with respect to the previous one (see SCALLOP_HGT and OVERLAP_DIST). The default SCALLOP_HGT is 0, in which case the respective tool positions are defined by the OVERLAP_DIST parameter value. If you specify a non-zero value for SCALLOP_HGT, the system computes the overlap distance using this value, then compares it with the OVERLAP_DIST value you specified, and uses the lesser of the two.
SCALLOP_HGT and OVERLAP_DIST
1. Tool
2. OVERLAP_DIST
3. SCALLOP_HGT
4. Sketched contour
OVERLAP_DIST
Defines the overlapping of successive tool hits. Specify OVERLAP_DIST as an absolute value in the units of the workpiece. The default is 0.
MAX_OVERLAP_DIST
Enables you to specify the maximum overlapping of successive tool hits. Specify as an absolute value in the units of the workpiece. The default is a dash (-), which means to ignore.
SHAKEAWAY_DIST
Defines the default distance to be left on both sides of a shake-away point or vertex. Specify SHAKEAWAY_DIST as an absolute value in the units of the workpiece.
OVERHANG_DIST
Defines the default distance to go past the edge on each side of an overhang vertex.
