Cartridges Involved

This Configuration element involves the following Cartridges.

Note: Not all cartridges are available for all CMC models.

Rotation Definition on V-Grooves

  • The Outside Rotation controls for Swoops and Flares for outside cuts on non-oval V-Grooves.

  • The Inside Rotation controls for Swoops and Flares for inside cuts on non-oval V-Grooves.

The Rotation field controls how much the foot block will rotate before cutting. Because this is a V-Groove, you will be using either the Outside Rotation or the Inside Rotation, based on which V-Groove line you are editing.

  • The first cut is the interior V-Groove line.

  • The second cut is the exterior V-Groove line.

Adjust the Outside Rotation if you are getting Swoops or Flares in the outside corners on a non-oval opening.
