The Cutting Parameters Explorer provides recommendations for a tool associated with an operation toolpath selected from Mastercam’s Toolpaths view.
Therefore, before you can see/adjust the recommendations, the Toolpath view must first have been populated with a toolpath strategy that was computed by CAM Assist for a selected part.
How to open the Cutting Parameters Explorer
To open the Cutting Parameters Explorer, take the following steps:
Create a CloudNC CAM Assist toolpath strategy (see Getting Started with CAM Assist).
Open Mastercam’s Toolpaths view - it contains the toolpath strategy from Step 1.
Within Mastercam’s Toolpaths view
Select a relevant operation toolpath.
Right-click the operation toolpath - a pop-up menu is displayed.
From the pop-up menu, select Cutting Parameters Explorer:
The option is at the bottom of the pop-up menu (see the screenshot to the right).
The Cutting Parameters Explorer now opens.
