2.5D Expansion function: How to Test the Thickness of Each Layer in Stratified section
Perface:
Method ONE：
1. Switching 3D interface.
2. Draw a cube of 5mm³.
Note: Use the Viewpoint Toggle button to toggle the perspective from which the model is viewed.
3. Move the cube to the center of the coordinate system and in the negative direction of the Z-axis
4. Use Stratified Section with Min Z set to -1 and thickness set to 0.01 to slice the cube into 100 layers.
5. Setting of processing parameters (power, speed, frequency, pulse width (If the machine is MPOA) and setting of filling parameters (parameters such as Line Space).
6. Place the machining material on the table and set the workpiece height correctly.
7. Turn on the red light preview and wait for the Z-axis to come to the correct focus, then determine the machining position and start continuous machining
8. Measure the depth of the machined square groove and calculate:
The thickness of each layer = Total depth of the groove/100
The total depth as measured above is 1.71 mm, so the thickness of each layer = 1.71/100 mm = 0.0171 mm.
Summary of the method:
Machining of 2.5D workpieces using the corresponding machining parameters, filling parameters, and the calculated thickness of each layer.
Method TWO：
The processing parameters corresponding to a material thickness of 0.01 mm per layer are measured and used for processing.
1. Switching 3D interface.
2. Draw a cube of 5mm³.
Note: Use the Viewpoint Toggle button to toggle the perspective from which the model is viewed.
3. Move the cube to the center of the coordinate system and in the negative direction of the Z-axis
4. Use Stratified Section with Min Z set to -1 and thickness set to 0.01 to slice the cube into 100 layers.
5. Setting of processing parameters (power, speed, frequency, pulse width (If the machine is MPOA) and setting of filling parameters (parameters such as Line Space).
6. Place the machining material on the table and set the workpiece height correctly.
7. Turn on the red light preview and wait for the Z-axis to come to the correct focus, then determine the machining position and start continuous machining
8. Measure the depth of the machined square groove and check that it is 1mm thick.
9. If the thickness is not 1 mm, please adjust the power, speed, frequency, and pulse width (If the machine is MPOA).
10.Test again until the depth is equal to 1mm.
Summary of the method:
Machining of 2.5D workpieces with adjusted machining parameters, filling parameters and thickness of each layer equal to 0.01.
