Can the post be modified to exclude the lift?
It wouldn’t be possible to remove the lift in the post because the post doesn’t know when it is in a pocket. Removing lifts would remove all lifts, which is not a good idea.
I have another Idea - not sure if it makes sense
If a checkbox with “don’t lift” is ticked, then the tool path changes in that way, that the tool goes back to it’s starting point inside the pocket first.
Similiar like it goes for milling = it passes around islands in case they exist. And then it can continue with the next depth without a lift and without producing possible crashes
I’ll need to think on this one. Whatever I do needs to be robust. A ‘use at your own peril’ option is likely to end up biting me with an increase in support calls.
This can extremely speed up jobs with lots of milled holes and pockets.
For me this would be a real killer feature
Thank you in advance for your effort!
Cheers,
Markus
