Contour Cut Through depth

[bertf]

Hi,

 

How can I adjust the depth of a cut through contour?
Now the depth is exactly the same as the thickness of the panel. 

 

 

Great would be if I could define this on the router.

 

Thanks,

Kinds regards,

Bert

Hi @bertf

 

please uncheck the box "cut through". Than the depth will be ajustable.

Hi Polygnum,

 

Thanks for you're reply but I want Cut through to be checked. This Contour is part of a symbol that can be placed on panels with variable thicknesses and I don't want the user to change the depth.

Hello @bertf,

actually "Cut through" does the same as Depth >= Thickness of the workpiece. In both cases the Depth of Contour 3D will result in Thickness of the workpiece + "Sizing z addition" (Machine Configuration -> Machining Settings).

At the moment we are discussing about two separate Tool Property regarding the relative and absolute depth of a router in connection with Contour 3D's "Cut through" and the depth of the Profile 3D.

Both are in the upper part of our Backlog, but I can't give you any timeline when those will be implemented.

Kind regards,
Martin

Hi Martin,

Thanks for the info. 

 

Sizing z addition is currently not in my machine configuration:

 

But I see the configuration names have been updated on the default NC-hops export:

 

I think I better look at updating all the settings and look for updates in my customized python files.

 

I'm wondering if it would be better to book a remote session to see where the exporterstarter has changed and which custom code might be obsolete? 

 

Thanks,

Kind regards,

Bert
