Curves and Surface Tools

What are Curves and Surfaces?

MillBox CAM relies on curves & surfaces to identify specific features on your restoration, such as screw holes, threaded surfaces, and margin/prep lines. For certain restorations, the presence of specific surfaces and curves are essential to successful nesting. Without these required elements, unexpected milling outcomes may occur, potentially resulting in broken tools, unfinished parts, or broken components.
