Parameters

Stack Direction
Direction of progressive material deposition layers. Options are "X", "Y", and "Z" indicating the global xg-, yg-, or zg-direction.
Bead Height and Bead Width
Height, L 2 , (measured parallel to the stack direction) and width, L 3 , of the deposited bead of material.
Activation Offset
Unused. Should be set to zero.
Deposition Position
Set to "Above", "Middle", or "Below" to indicate that the removed material is situated above, through, or below the path in the stack direction.
