Use SuperNURBS to increase accuracy and finish on parametric surfaces.
Issue
Your NC Format always outputs G131 (SuperNURBS) for 5-axis operations.
By default, your NC Format does not output SuperNURBS for 3+2 operations. However, you can enable SuperNURBS for any 3+2 operation by setting the SuperNURBS path parameter.
Answer
Setting SuperNURBS for a selected operation
- In the ribbon bar, go to Programs > Settings > Parameters
-
Click Operations
-
Use the arrows (>) beside the operation names to expand the parameter(s) for that operation. You can modify multiple operations by selecting them using the Ctrl and/or Shift keys
-
Enable the Use SuperNURBS for this operation? parameter under the Value column to output SuperNURBS for the operation(s)
If you would always like to output SuperNURBS for 3+2 operations, you can default SuperNURBS to be on for all 3+2 operations by following the steps below
Setting all 3+2 operations to use SuperNURBS
-
In the ribbon bar, go to Manage > Resources > NC Formats
-
Select your NC Format > Edit
-
In the Advanced Options area, select Parameters
-
Enable the Default Value check box for the SUPERNURBS_3_PLUS_2 parameter
-
Click OK
-
Click Finish
