We are always following up on user requests.<\/p>\n

Our conversational 3D menus for KipwareM<\/a>\u00ae have truly been a game changer for a lot of our clients … allowing them to create G code programs to machine “standard” 3D shapes like cones, troughs, curved surfaces, tapered holes, edges with radii and more … without having to rely on expensive and complex CAD\/CAM software. Packed with powerful, real world machining features … KipwareM<\/a>\u00ae 3D programming has proven to be groundbreaking, innovative and in-demand !!<\/p>\n

Since it’s introduction in 2013 … many clients have suggested new “standard” shapes and we have tried to answer the call when we feel the shape requested would be beneficial to the general community. Our TAPERED – RADIUS EDGE<\/strong> is one of those that has proven to be quite popular and widely used by our clients.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

But recently I handles a phone call where the client asked “Do you have a 3D menu to chamfer an edge?” I though to myself … geez we should have. But low and behold we had one for a radius but not a chamfer. Blew my mind … and I immediately reached for the Development Whiteboard and added that for immediate development.<\/p>\n

I’m happy to report that as of June 15th, 2019 … the KipwareM<\/a>\u00ae 3D option now contains conversational menus for BOTH<\/strong> cutting a radius tapered edge and a straight tapered edge.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It has already proven quite useful with a good client of ours how wanted to cut a radius tapered edge … but was looking for a quick way to rough out the shape before finishing. Using the straight tapered edge allowed him to utilize a fairly large step-over to rough out the material … then come back with the radius tapered edge with smaller step-overs to finish the contour with a nice smooth finish.<\/p>\n

In addition … we revamped the radius tapered edge to clamp the step down along the taper for the Z axis. Previously we had it set to clamp the Y axis … but for shallow angles the Y step created a greater Z step that proved to be too heavy in some instances. This new concept insures that the Z step down will be the one that is clamped … and the Y axis step will most often be reduced … not increased.<\/p>\n

Always innovating … always improving … that is our promise !!<\/p>\n
