Hi,
I´m traying trial version of Cut3D. I found limitation of stepover. Maximum is 50%. Is any posibilities to make stepover higher. I usually work in 2D pocketing about 80%. This diference 30 % make in my case 3 hours on 1 piece.
I´m using different software and there is stepover 80%. When I use soft material, I had n´t problem in history.
Of course, is possible to do 50% stepover and higher pass deep, but with higher stepover and shorter pass deep sounds my cnc machine more quiet.
Thanks for advice.

Re: Stepover 80%
I don't have Cut3D any longer - but I believe Cut3D work with ball mills. If the stepover was more than 50% then the radius of the ball would be exceded and leave scallop lines. Maybe that is a limitation in Cut3D. I use Aspire and there is no limitation so I frequently go to 75% stepover on my rough cuts.
