BobCAD users have many different options in this feature. This new feature will allow users to break their toolpath into smaller segments and reduce the feedrate in the corners of the toolpath. When moving around a part, additional stock is always encountered in the corners.Ī new feature in V33 is the Corner Slowdown option in our Advanced Feedrate page. Having the tool engaged in the material too much can easily break a tool. Many variables need to be taken into consideration, especially ensuring the tool does not engage too much material at the same time. You can cut your feedrate to a specified percentage when you approach corners. The Corner Slowdown option is available in many operations now including pocket, profile, engraving, chamfer, and corner rounding. The distance from corner option is the distance from the detected corner at which the entity will be broken, and the slower feed rate applied.įeedrate percentage is the percentage of the cutting feedrate to be applied to the portions that will be slowed down.

The maximum angle option determines the maximum angle change difference between two entities to determine whether they should be handled as a corner. The minimum angle option determines the minimum angle change difference between two entities to determine whether they should be handled as a corner. You can apply a specific minimum angle and maximum angle, a certain distance from the corner, and a desired feedrate percentage. You have the option to apply this feature in external corners only, internal corners only, or all corners.

A new feature in V9 is the Corner Slowdown option in our Advanced Feedrate page.
