Radial Digitize Notes
1. A guide to possible radial digitizing paths is as follows:
2. When radial digitizing, make sure the probe can fully retract to the center position without obstructions.
Observe the two parts below. The cross section on the left has no obstructions that could keep the probe from full
retraction to the center position. The cross section on the right does not allow the digitizing to retract to the center
in Area A. This area will cause a probe crash; single patch digitizing of parts such as this should be avoided. Use
2 or more patches to digitize the part on the right (in this case, you could divide the part in half horizontally, and do
each half separately).
