Use the Pencil finishing strategy to remove the material in the smaller fillets. Pencil is a special finishing operation that detects inner corner
edges on the surface and creates a toolpath there. This method is particularly effective for finishing small radius fillets.
1. On the ribbon, click CAM tab
3D Milling panel
Pencil
Tool tab
By looking at the comparison in the previous step of this tutorial, you can see that the maximum amount of material left is about 1.4 mm. Also,
by investigating the model, there are some fillets with a radius of 1.0 mm and some smaller ones of 0.5 mm. This Pencil operation removes
most of the material not reachable by the previous tools by using a 3 mm ball mill.
1. On the Tool tab, click the
button.
2. From the Sample Libraries > Tutorial tool library, select tool #22 - 3 mm ball.
3. Click
Passes tab
1. Click the Passes tab.
