<p>The key model is <a class="xref" href="../../../api/Hi.Machining.FreeformRemover.html">FreeformRemover</a>: a cutter whose removal volume comes from two referenced geometries — a non-cutting strut and a cutting shaper — anchored to the holder buckle.</p>
<p>This cutter is offered in the Cutter Type selector and nowhere else. There is no Freeform Remover editor here and no freeform-remover endpoint in the backend, so nothing on this surface can create or change one — the shipped caption says as much, and names HiNcRcl as the place to edit one.</p>
<h2 id="layout">Layout</h2>
<h3 id="web-layout">Web Layout</h3>
<ul>
<li>Cutter Node Panel, the Cutter tab of the <a class="xref" href="../index.html">Tool House Page</a> at <code>/tool-house/:toolId/cutter</code> — the Control-Tree node <code>toolhouse/tool-&lt;id&gt;/cutter</code>
<ul>
<li>Cutter Type Selector — its second option, Freeform Remover, is this cutter</li>
<li>Freeform Remover Caption (<code>toolhouse.cutter.freeformRemoverUnavailable</code>) — the panel's whole body while that option is showing</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>Nothing else on this surface belongs to this cutter. The Shank Mass / Hone Radius / Relief Angle fields on that panel are gated to the Milling Cutter branch, and the cutter's child builder grows section tabs only for a MillingCutter, so the Cutter node is a leaf here: no Material, Flute Profile, Flute Contours, Upper Beam or Optimization section appears. See <a class="xref" href="cutter-panel.html">Cutter Panel</a> for the panel these live on.</p>
<h2 id="geometry-definitions">Geometry Definitions</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Strut Geometry</strong> — The non-cutting portion (holder/shank)
<ul>
<li>Used for collision detection</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Shaper Geometry</strong> — The cutting portion
<ul>
<li>Defines cutting surfaces</li>
<li>Used for material removal simulation</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="features">Features</h2>
<p>Picking Freeform Remover is a no-op that does not stick. The panel makes no API call for that option — it sets the selector locally, clears the tool cache, then re-reads the tool, and the re-read is what puts the selector back to Milling Cutter or None. The model on the tool is left exactly as it was.</p>
<p>A tool that already carries a freeform remover reads as None. The tool detail casts the tool's cutter to a MillingCutter and reports both <code>hasCutter</code> and the embedded cutter DTO from that one cast, so a non-milling cutter comes back as no cutter at all, and the selector — which derives its value from those two fields — shows None. The Freeform Remover option is therefore reachable by the user's click but never by a load.</p>
<p>That makes one sequence worth knowing before using the web page on such a tool: picking Milling Cutter calls <code>EnsureCutter</code>, which returns the tool's existing cutter only when it is already a MillingCutter and otherwise assigns a new one — so on a tool holding a freeform remover, that choice replaces it. Leaving the selector alone leaves the freeform remover intact, which is what a round trip through the web page does by default.</p>
<p>Cache clearing needs no user action: there is nothing to clear for this cutter, since no endpoint mutates it, and the tool-cache clear the selector performs only drops the tool's and the holder's cached solids so the canvas redraws.</p>

<p>See <a class="xref" href="../../index.html">HiNC App Anatomy</a> for git repository links.</p>
<p>HiNC-2025-webservice (Quasar CLI SPA):</p>
<ul>
<li><code>wwwroot-src/src/components/controlTree/toolhouse/ToolCutterPanel.vue</code> — the only web surface this cutter has: the selector option, the caption shown in its place, and the branch of the type handler that makes no call.</li>
<li><code>wwwroot-src/src/components/controlTree/toolHouseItemTypes.ts</code> — its cutter child builder grows sections only for a MillingCutter, so this cutter's Cutter node is a leaf.</li>
<li><code>wwwroot-src/src/i18n/en/toolhouse.ts</code> — <code>toolhouse.cutter.freeformRemover</code>, the option label, and <code>toolhouse.cutter.freeformRemoverUnavailable</code>, the caption; the zh-Hans and zh-Hant files carry the same keys.</li>
<li><code>Mech/ToolHouseController.cs</code> — the tool detail, which casts the cutter to a MillingCutter and reports <code>hasCutter</code> from that cast; this is why the selector cannot come back showing Freeform Remover.</li>
<li><code>Mech/CutterController.cs</code> — <code>EnsureCutter</code> / <code>ClearCutter</code> and every cutter mutation, all MillingCutter-only; the backend has no freeform-remover endpoint.</li>
</ul>
