Plane-by-plane:
Machining type •
The tool is inserted to infeed depth in the pocket center.
Note: This setting can be used only if the cutter can cut across center.
Oscillation: Insert with oscillation along center axis of longitudinal groove:
•
The cutter center point oscillates along a linear path until it reaches the depth
infeed. When the depth has been reached, the path is traversed again without
depth infeed in order to remove the slope caused by insertion.
Reference point Position of the reference point:
