6. Chamfering
In this lesson, you will learn how to perform chamfering operations in ENCY — a simple but important step to improve the safety, aesthetics, and durability of the part. We will focus on removing sharp edges from key model features: contours, slots, top holes, and castellations.
You will learn how to:
- manually select the edges for chamfering, avoiding hard-to-reach areas;
- use a 10 mm conical cutter, automatically assigned for chamfering operations;
- set the chamfer depth (e.g., 0.5 mm) and check the tool contact points;
- generate the toolpath and check for possible gouges that may occur during chamfering on models without built-in chamfer geometry;
- temporarily disable gouge checking if needed to ensure correct simulation;
- run the simulation and evaluate the smoothness and accuracy of edge machining.
This lesson shows how to enhance part quality with minimal effort, making the product safer and more professional-looking.
In the next video, we will work on text engraving. See you then!
