This update provides better names for the WCS X, Y, and Z directions used in multiaxis toolpaths. The update also adds equivalent Tplane options, as shown in the following image. The Tplane selections help you define a reference axis more quickly.

The Direction drop-down menu.

The Multiaxis toolpaths that take advantage of these changes are as follows:

  • Swarf Milling

  • Unified

  • Deburr

  • Pocketing

  • Triangular Mesh

  • 3+2 Automatic Roughing

  • Convert to 5-axis

For example, the following Unified toolpath pages offer the new selections:

  • Containment

  • Tool Axis Control

  • Collision Control

  • Linking

  • Utility

This update provides you with decreased programming time and better selection-name clarity.
