Cycle Descriptions

 

Each of the cut cycles in Router-CIM have particular settings to allow their use with minimal setup.  Still, some explanation of these cycles is necessary to enable a full understanding of their parameters.

 

Each of the parameters available for each cycle is listed and the possible entries shown.

 

The Cycles are listed according to their functionality. Profiling cycles, Drilling and Hole Cutting cycles, Pocketing cycles, Open Shape cycles, NURBS cycles, and then Specialty cycles.

 

Underneath the cycle image in the Control Panel, you will see an option for:

 

Reset_Cycle_Settings

 

Selecting this option will reset the currently selected cut cycle back to the original default settings.
