There are two material removal simulation modes (or models) available for use. The main advantage of the Voxel method is very rapid processing times.  The Polygonal method is more comprehensive and results in better display quality, however at the expense of speed.

To change the simulation module in the Profile-NEST module, select Simulation Preferences located under the Simulate tab or select CAM Preferences > Simulation Settings button under the Machining Browser and select the appropriate model for simulation.

Refer to Simulation Preferences for a detailed description.
