Buttons

In the top left corner, it is possible to modify the activation of the cut.

Activate/Deactivate cut
Allows to activate or deactivate the selected cut.

NOTE

A disabled cut is not performed by the machine.

According to the cut type selected, different versions of this panel will be visible.

Cuts with disk

Selecting a cut executed with disk, linear or arc, the following panel is visualized:

1.1_b.png

The cuts executed with disk are characterized by an initial point and a final point. The arrows define the direction of travel, from beginning to end.

On the table reported below, are reported the buttons with which the operator can modify the characteristics of the cut:

Invert cut direction
The operator can invert the execution direction of the cut.

Quantity of extension
Allows to change the length of each cut extension.

2.10.png

Calculate obstruction
Recalculate the quantity of cut extension based on the diameter of the disk and the thickness of the material, making it correspond to the obstruction of the disk.

2.08-20250711-125657.png

Extend cut
Extend the cut of the length indicated by the extension amount.
The left button extends the initial part of the cut, while the right button extends the final part.

2.09-20250711-125724.png

Shorten cut
Shorten the cut of the length indicated by the amount of extension.
The button on the left shortens the initial part of the cut, while the one on the right shortens the final part.

Extend extreme initial until edge slab
Allows to extend the beginning of the cut to the edge of the slab.
The value in the box is used if you want to extend the cut by a certain quantity outside the slab.

1.7b.png

Extend end final until edge slab
Allows to extend the end of the cut to the edge of the slab.
The value in the box is used in case you want to extend the cut by a certain amount outside the slab.

Extend short cuts
If the selected cut is too short to make the disk penetrate completely the material, with this button, and if possible, the cut is extended to become through.

Some data regarding the execution of the cut are displayed.

1.81-20250711-130222.png

Penetration
Cut penetration in the material. The operator can modify this value.

1.82-20250711-130211.png

Percentage speed
Percentage of speed set to execute the cut. The operator can modify this value.

NOTE

It is not possible to change the percentage speed of cuts on arcs.

1.83-20250711-130800.png

Inclination
Inclination degrees of the cut. It is not modifiable.

Modify the cut from the working area

Selecting a cut on the work area and pressing the right button of the mouse, appears a window to be able to modify the cut quickly.

The buttons correspond to the functions already listed. The extreme of the cut closest to the point where the button was pressed is extended.

Cuts on internal arcs

For cuts on arches having curvature turned towards the interior of the piece, it is necessary to consider that the disk’s blade during processing might ruin the side.
For this reason, these cuts must be carried out differently from those for external cuts.

1.1_c.png

Parametrix proposes two modes for cutting internal arcs, selectable with the button that is located in the top right.

2.05-20250711-125040.png

Miter Cut Arc
A miter cut to measure is executed. The adequate inclination is calculated automatically.

2.06-20250711-125059.png

Offset Arc
The cut is executed without inclination, but moved outwards of the piece in relation to its correct position.

NOTE

By default Parametrix recommends to set the processing of these cuts with the 'inclined arch' mode.
If is not desired, it is necessary to change the execution mode of each single cut.

Each processing mode possesses merits and defects:

  • Inclined arches allow a better finish on the final result, which then will require less manual labor to be completed.
    However they require a greater effort from the machine, and therefore the processing must be carried out at reduced speeds and with more passes.

  • Offset arches are less onerous with regard to the fatigue that the machine must perform for their working, and therefore can be performed at higher speeds.
    In compensation, the disk obstruction causes greater damage to the material, and moreover the material that must be removed in manual finishing phase is greater.

Holes and Millings

Workings like holes and carvings allow a minor number of changes by the operator.

0.01.png

Information related to is available.

1.10_b.png

Penetration
Penetration of the cut in the material. The operator can modify this value.

image-20250717-145600.png

Tool diameter
The diameter of the tool that is used for the cut is shown.

Rims and Holes on vertex

The holes at angle and the recesses are composed respectively of more holes and milling. In the case one of these items is selected, a list of all cuts that compose them is shown.

0.02.png

The operator can decide to activate or deactivate each cut individually using the button on each list entry, or if go to act at the same time on all cuts of the work with the button on the top.
The buttons that appear below the list allow to change the order with which the individual cuts are executed.

2.13.png

Move with arrows
They allow to move the selected cut to the upper or lower position.

2.14.png

Déplacement to the desired position
Allows to move the selected cut in the position indicated by the adjacent text box.

Furthermore, the operator can change the penetration of the working through the field below:

1.10_b.png

Penetration
Penetration of the cuts in the material. The operator can modify this value.

NOTE

The plunge of all cuts composing the working is the same
Changing this value, it will change the penetration of all cuts of the list.
