Tutorial: Using the 3+2 Axis Machining Mode‏‏‎

The manner in which the ‘3+2’ Machining mode is used, depends on the choice made for the Machining direction.

For the ‘3+2 Axis’ Machining mode, CAM Assist provides three Machining directions:

Aligned to X, Y, Z axes - the tool orientation used to create toolpath strategies can only come from the +X, -X, +Y, -Y, and +Z axes.
- See Tutorial: 3+2 Axis Machining Mode (Aligned to X, Y, Z Axes).
User defined - the tool orientation is specified by the user in the Target setup(s)..
- See Tutorial: 3+2 Axis Machining Mode (User-defined).
Automatic - automatic 3+2 strategies are only available for evaluation through participation in CloudNC’s ‘Early Access Beta Program'
