This is a practice exercise video solution.

00:07

For this practice, we will use axial swarf.F3D.

00:11

In the manufacturer workspace, we already have an adaptive clearing operation.

00:15

Now we want to create a multi-axis swarf.

00:18

Using the same tool, we're going to create a swarf based on contours as the drive mode and faces as the selection.

00:25

You may need to reverse the arrow you see on screen, and then we're going to select ‘okay’.

00:30

By default, it's going to hop up and above this cut-out.

00:34

But if we modify the parameters on the past this section to minimize the axial motion,

00:40

it allows to create the swarf toolpath without jumping up for that opening.

00:46

From here, let's make sure that we save the design before moving on.
