How to simplify toolpath - 3D Adaptive

[frank.kloetzer]

Hello everyone, we are currently switching from PrimCAM to Fusion360 and I am having trouble generating proper toolpaths. I want to get rid of all this circling motions for those smaller slots as they greatly increase our machining time. I understand that this would be the proper way for metal, but our material is comparable to wood, even more porous, and we can speed trough this material at 5000mm/min in one go without problems or quality loss. 

How can I tell the program to make, for example this small slot in the screenshot below, in 2 simple cuts? 

I also attached a Video so you get a better picture of the project. 

Thanks a lot & have a nice day! 🙂 

Best regards,

Frank.

I suggest then that you dispense with 3D Adaptive and replace it with 3D Pocket Clearing. It's essentially 2D Pocket with model recognition
