Hi @FrodoLoggins,

Thanks for feedback. It's a known issue CAM-42746.

Hi thanks. Any idea if this will be worked on at some point soon? It was a known issue 5 years ago when I first reported it.

We're looking at it now. I can't give any promisses until it's finished and tested. I'll give update later.

Is there any scope to add a percentage and not an absolute feedrate? If you have different sized internal and external rads all around your single profile you wouldn't want 1 single feedrate for all of them, it makes no sense. 

Mastercam has the ability to distribute a feedrate depending on the difference in size of the radius to cut. It's very clever.

Any updates?

Hi @FrodoLoggins,

The "Only Internal Corners" issue should be fixed. I get the following result for original example:

Hi @Robert_J_Scott,

Thanks for feedback. We have very similar improvment request CAM-38159.

Thanks.

At the moment, I get an alarm if I try to increase the feed for an outer radius. Removal of the alarm would be a start but definitely the ability to dynamically change feedrates for inside and outside rads dependant on size in relation to initial programmed (straight line) feedrate would be game changing!
