2. Set the parameters based on the types of the part.
(1) Extrusion
Auto Identify: The system will read the extrusion direction of the part automatically.
X, Y, Z: Adjust the extrusion direction manually. If the preview on the right side is not consistent with the actual situation, you can adjust the direction to make sure the preview is consistent with the part.
(2)Preview Information
Loading: The part file is loading. If the dimension information is shown as 0.00x0.00x0.0, then the part file is not read. You should adjust the parameters for debugging.
Part Dimension: The dimension will be shown on the top right corner of the window.
(3) Section Steel
If the imported part is channel steel, angle steel, or C-shaped steel, you shall check L/C profile. You may refer to Special Toolpath for details.
One-cut: For channel or angle steels, there are two cutting strategies—face-by-face cutting?(default) and?one-cut.
When unchecked, the system performs?face-by-face cutting, processing each face separately.
When checked, the system performs?single-cut, cutting the end contour of the part in one continuous pass.
LeadIn: The length of the lead-in line outside the tube when the special toolpath is automatically generated.
LeadOut: The length of the lead-out line outside the tube when the special toolpath is automatically generated.
Notice: All the default lead length of the special toolpath added to TubesT through Import from File and Draw Part shall be consistent with the value here !!
(4) Select contour
The actual tubes and parts have both outer contour and inner contour lines, but only one of them is needed for the processing. The Outer contour is generally selected.
?
(5) Bevel
If the part requires bevel cutting, check Bevel, and the bevel toolpath will be generated according to the drawing. You may refer to How to enable Bevelfor details.
Notice: Only the equipment with a bevel cutting head can process the bevel. Please do not check the option for ordinary tube cutting machines.
(6) In-part shape
In-part shapeallows users to add parts from the cut-off material of the tube. Check In-part shape, and the system will recognize this part correctly.
Check Identify Marking Layer, and the system can automatically distinguish between the through-cut and non-through-cut layer after importing. You may refer to Layer Mapping for details.
