How can air cutting be eliminated when milling a tube from the side

I have a tube that has some windows cut out of the side of it.

When I create a toolpath for a feedmill to pocket out the window, there is a massive amount of wasted time, cutting air.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

Thanks for raising your query via Autodesk Forum.

 

Can you please verify the part or a solid stock a valid solid? You can verify that via Construct > Verify solid. Did you also try using stockmodel? If you can supply the part, I can take a look.

 

Thank You.

This worked for the "side" feature toolpath, and kind-of worked for the "pocket feature".

Still working on an efficient toolpath for this... But thanks this did help
