Multi Regions and Contouring (Graphic)

Here's an example of a contour which contains an area where the tool cannot fit. If the Multi Regions feature is clicked On, the contour is cut, and then the tool returns to cut the area it could not enter. Gouge checking is employed the entire time.

 

Multi Regions = ON

Here's an example of the same contour cut with the Multi Regions feature turned OFF. The tool only cuts the contour that can be machined without gouging the part.

 

 

Multi Regions = OFF
