10. imos MAX - KITs The 5 axis kernel offers approximately 800 settings for creating machining operations. To create a simple formatting operation at least 32 settings have to be defined in the 5 axis Kernel. The imos KITs are pre-defined machining operations (e.g. formatting, grooves, roughing) and preserve just the essential settings from the 5 axis kernel in the user interface. This makes it possible to simply select the surfaces that shall be machined for a formatting. The imos KITs contain all necessary settings as default-values. In the user interface tools can be selected the lead in/lead out or the machining depth can be configured. KITs Benefits: • simple creation of complex 5 axis machinings • guided creation of machining operations • less effort in programming 5 axis machinings / lower time expenditure • less training course expenditure with pre-defined machining operations

11. imos MAX - KITs Pre-defined machining operations: • drilling • 3D polyline • roughing/ finishing • pocket/ groove milling • formatting • island milling • milled drilling • free-form pockets
