This video we show how to use a Flowline strategy with RoboDK CAM.
The Flowline strategy creates a toolpath that is aligned (or mapped) to the short or long side or along the parametric dimensions of the given surface.

With RoboDK CAM you can create and simulate machining toolpaths for any robot and CNC. Learn more: robodk.com/CAM
