Chamfer
A chamfer is a bevel or line that’s inserted between two lines to relieve sharp angles
or corners on a part.
You can insert a chamfer between two intersecting lines whose steps are adjacent in
the program step.
There are three ways you can program a chamfer:
•
With two lengths
•
With Length 1 and an angle
•
With Length 2 and an angle
Choose a method based upon information from your print.
You may also close a contour with a chamfer (e.g., a triangle) by inserting the chamfer
step immediately after the last step in the contour.
To program a chamfer:
•
From the PGM screen, locate the lines you want to insert a chamfer between.
