...

  • Disable
    Robotmaster will not project surface geometry.

  • Automatic
    Tries the three techniques below and picks one automatically, if possible.

  • Stock
    Scrap CAD geometry must be imported and labeled as Stock in Robotmaster. With this option enabled, surface geometry can be projected onto stock.

  • Untrim
    Heal surfaces that have been trimmed and project onto the healed surface. This is designed for use with closed interior profiles.

  • Extension
    Project surface geometry outward at edges, as with exterior profiles.

Compensation

type

  • Center
    No kerf compensation will be used. The torch path will directly follow the toolpath with no left or right offset.

    This option might be used with common line cutting or for open (non-closed) profiles that do not require kerf compensation.

  • Left
    Left kerf compensation will be applied. When plasma cutting closed interior profiles, assuming a counterclockwise cut direction (when viewed from the top of the cut), a left kerf offset would correctly compensate the cut for kerf width.

  • Right
    Right kerf compensation will be applied.

Use kerf radius as compensation
