HI all

I am using 5axis horizontal machining ceneter (X,Y,Z,B,A) to cut a fillet arround the boss with short lenth ball nose endmill.In this case to avoid gouging on the part all 5 axis (X,Y,Z,B,A) should move am I rite.I tried with mult multiaxis variable contour and contour profile but I failed.
Can any one give an idea?
I attached a simple sample part file can you go through that.
file is in nx 7.5
thanks and regards

In Variable Contour there is a field for setting the tools lean away from the drive surface to keep shank/holder clear.
