| Multi-axis Flank Contouring | Climb and Conventional options are inverted Order of drives is inverted as follows when the Close tool path check box is not selected. Drives A, B, C, D are machined in the order D, C, B, A.
Order of drives is inverted as follows when the Close tool path check box is selected. Drives A, B, C, D are machined in the order A, D, C, B, A. Drive A is the first and last machined element.
Start and End elements, offsets, and conditions are inverted. Approach and Leave distances are swapped. Manual direction is inverted (Left / Right). Local stopping condition and Local restarting direction are updated. |
