I/MAXMILL is an application enhancement package to the basic off-line programming system, I/NC. This optional package provides capabilities for automatically creating 2-1/2 through 5-axis toolpaths (including swarf cutting) from geometry created using the EMS family of design products. This module includes the capabilities of Pocket, Profile, Face, and Point-to-Point. I/MAXMILL provides for area clearing by following the surface boundary, a user-defined vector, or flow-lines of the surface. Multiple surfaces may be defined, as well as roughing and finishing modes. Multiple depths of cut, multiple side cuts, island and clamp avoidance, and check surface control to a specified tool height are supported.
