SECTION FOUR - PREPARATORY FUNCTIONS (G CODES)
Explanation of How Displaced Tool Paths Cannot Have an Intersection
(a) Path of a cutter with (b) Path of a cutter with
0" tool diameter non-zero tool diameter
The solution of the above part is to introduce a 00.0001" chamfer or round corner at Point 5
between the non-intersecting surfaces.
Explanation of How a 00.0001" Chamfer Should Be
Introduced to Solve a Non-intersection Problem
Note: The “,C” used to chamfer can only be used between two lines.
In some cases the system will find an intersection, but it will be unreasonably far away from the
part. Again, in such cases, a 00.0001" chamfer or round corner should be inserted to solve this
problem.
