Three-dimensional path elements are used in 3D mode. In 3D space, you can set points and connect with 3D splines. You can also insert arcs in any spatial plane. In contrast to 2.5D path elements that use X/Y-coordinates only, the path velocity and acceleration refers to movement in the X/Y/Z-coordinates. The Z-axis is treated the same as the X-axis and Y-axis. Therefore, every movement can be implemented in the Z-direction.
3D Mode
The mode does not support ellipses, parabolas, and 2D splines. An error message is issued.
SMC_CheckVelocities checks the Z-component
SMC_ToolCorr and SMC_AvoidLoop generate errors
