Example 1

Step 4

Located on the right side of the interface is a set of

conguration options to prepare 3D models for cutting.

First, click on the green man button labelled Model.

A Model dialog box pops up, presenting you with 2 tags

- Size and Orientation, and Origin. Under the Size and

Orientation tag, you will see a set of options.

Select Scale option under Model Size to resize your

model proportionately in percentages instead of using

the Length option.

To enlarge or reduce the size while keeping the aspect

ratios the same, select the Keep XYZ ratio check box.

Unchecking it allows you to edit the values of X, Y and Z

separately.

To go back to the original dimensions of the 3D data,

click 1/1 Scale.

On the right side of the dialog is where we set the

orientation of the model.

It specifes the top surface and orientation of the model.

When you are performing single- or multiple-surface

cutting, the top surface is the rst surface cut.

Change the Model Size back to Length. On the right

side, under Selected Top Surface, you can check on to

select an angle of rotation of the model by clicking on

the radio buttons as shown. Then drop down the Rotate

list to select 90 degrees for the angle.
