Inventor HSM provides various methods for handling sharp corners within the toolpath. One of these features is called Feed Optimization and allows you to reduce the feedrate in sharp corners.
To activate feed optimization, enable the Feed Optimization check box on the Passes tab.
Maximum directional change:
Specifies the maximum angular change allowed before the feedrate is reduced.
Reduced feed radius:
Specifies the minimum radius allowed before the feed is reduced.
Reduced feed distance:
Specifies the distance to reduce the feed before a corner.
Reduced feedrate:
Specifies the reduced feedrate to be used at corners.
Only inner corners
Enable to only reduce the feedrate on inner corners.
