Do you find yourself changing the same parameters, every time you perform a toolpath operation? Use these steps to setup your operation defaults. Mastercam can be customized to improve your work flow

Expand your properties tab in your operations manager and click on files




Click on the options tab in operation defaults



Pick a toolpath to setup defaults



You will see a set of pre-defined tools, any values will be proportional to this tool



Set all values here, clearance, retract, multi passes, depth cuts, lead in/lead out etc.. These values will become you default every time you call up this toolpath.
