Drill points are similar to toolpaths but can be interpreted differently by many CNC machines. EnRoute creates drill points differently than toolpaths so that the machine driver can determine how much information to send to the machine.
Drill points are all created with the same cut parameters in EnRoute. There are six tools that create drill points in different arrangements.
Drill Strategy Templates
Similar to toolpaths, drill strategies can be saved as templates and reloaded later. Within the drill strategy dialogue, type a name into the Strategy box and click the Save As button to save the current strategy as a template. The template can be reloaded by selecting the template name from the Strategy drop down box.
