Barrel _ Lens cutters in 3DEXPERIENCE

Hello,

More and more, we have questions around Barrel and Lens cutters.

The mains benefits with theses tools are:

  1. Reduce the machining time thanks to higher step over compared to classical end mill tools
  2. Increase surface quality thanks to the large radius of the tool

Barrel and Lens are already supported in 3DEXPERIENCE and will be improved in the next release.

I propose in the following presentation to give you the current status in this domain R2021x ​​​​​​​ R2020x ​​​​​​​ R2019x ​​​​​​​
