Professional Options
KeyMachinist 3D milling provides powerful options for optimal machining
times, setups, and results.
-
Tool containment using 2D and 3D curves
-
Helix, ramping, and plunge entry styles
-
Check surface control
-
Plane view machining (4-axis indexing)
-
Re-machining steep and shallow walls
-
Re-generation of toolpaths

Efficient Z-level contour roughing utility employing XY offset up to 90% of
tool diameter, ensuring complete material removal and smooth motions at sharp
corners via loops. Image courtesy of TriAxis Machine & Tool, North Royalton, OH

Advanced lace cutting with Z clipping planes and re-machining capabilities. The
output stream is filtered and optimized with look-ahead for high speed milling,
data smoothing and reduction with excellent proven results in machining time.

Plateau Finishing features constant Z with variable step-down based on wall
steepness and continuous ramping / tool engagement

Round Finishing generates contours at a constant step along the surfaces,
creating a very smooth finish regardless of the steepness or shape.

Wedging allows a precise Pencil Cut along the joint (intersection) of
selectable two sets of drive/check faces.
