Hi,

I’m working with a .sat import in SolidWorks CAM using only 2.5D operations.

I have a pocket with a chamfer, and I want the toolpath to follow the inner edge at the bottom of the chamfer. However, CAM keeps selecting the outer/top edge instead.

Because of this, the toolpath does not match the actual pocket geometry. I specifically need the inner contour to be used, while the chamfer itself will be machined later with a chamfer tool.

How can I force SolidWorks CAM to select the inner edge as the machining boundary for the pocket?
Is this a feature recognition issue with .sat files, or is there a setting to control which edge is picked?

Thanks.
