Tool path traectory for several parts

[kaija78]

Hello.

I am trying to cut multiple parts using the optimal cutter toolpath.

The control program is divided into three parts:
1) drilling;
2) a cutout along the outer contour;
3) a "cruciform" cutout.

Point 2 tries to get inside of the model and to the center

instead of making one solid cut.

Can anyone help fix the situation?

Test model.

What operation did you use? (it matters to know how to limit its reach).

Generally, it will go where it can within your selections, so you need to limit its reach somehow (selecting geometry, creating sketches, etc), but it depends what operation you are using.
