I'm trying to machine an impeller using MasterCAM 2018 Blade Expert. I'm trying to do two things that are preventing me from having a good toolpath, 1) I want minimal stickout (1") and 2) I want to use climb cut so as to minimize tool wear and chips getting recut.
When I use the center outwards, climb cut option the B table rotates 180 degrees during the cuts and makes it so I go outside the Z axis negative limit, see image.
When I use conventional cut the B table only rotate about +/- 45 degrees and I stay within the z axis limits.
Am I missing an option somewhere that will keep the B table in that +/- 45 degree range during climb cut?
Thanks.
