Blocked areas

There are often areas at model parts that must not be touched by clamping devices during clamping on the CNC machine table, e.g. because the parts contain holes from previous milling or drilling operations or because corresponding machining operations have already been carried out that would lead to leakage of the vacuum during clamping. These critical areas can be defined manually by the designer as blocked areas for clamping operations or they can be determined automatically by PASCAM Bea as such, additionally this data can be put out specifically for other manufacturing processes.
When creating the CNC program, PASCAM Bea automatically combines blocked areas that are geometrically related. For example, for a double row of holes on a cabinet side panel, only 2 blocking areas are put out. This ensures transparent, clear and practical CNC programs.
