When defining tool geometry, keep in mind that cell collision detection can be refined such that the flute, arbor, and holder are treated separately for collisions. If the flute is excluded from the collision group for a workpiece, it will allow the flute to come into contact with the workpiece without causing a collision in Robotmaster.
