I have a large project, that because of the tap file size requires tiling
But
The project is not going to be moving after each tile tap file
it will remain stationary
Have tried a couple of trys but it keeps acting like it has to be moved
What next
Thought about making two boxes. Each overlapping and make two paths. One for each box
Ideas
toolpath tiling

Re: toolpath tiling
Look into "tape splitting" rather than tiling

Re: toolpath tiling
thank you so much for recommending the tape splittingIslaWW wrote:Look into "tape splitting" rather than tiling
had heard about it but looked intimadating
adding a command line to the post processor is great
just have to keep in mind the line total in the tap file
otherwise you'll end up like my first test
56 tap files
900000 lines of code, so changed command to 400000 each and worked great
thank you
