I am having an issue getting my live tool to cut a groove in the face of my part on my HAAS ST20 Y. The software just wants to make face cuts. I selected spiral cut, but still get the same result. I have done similar tool paths with success. I must be missing something. I could use some guidence please
Not quite sure what you mean by “face cuts” . Could you provide some more details?
Alex
Alex, I have a small groove below the face of the part. It’s a round part. The groove is .058 wide and .030 deep. I don’t have a turning tool small enough to get in there so I was going to use an endmill in a live holder.
