b) In the case of finish cutting
1. Rapid traverse up to the starting point (A).
2. Rapid traverse along the Z axis up to the point equal to END POINT Z.
3. Cutting feed to the opposite side (B) of the starting point.
4. Rise along the Z axis in rapid traverse by an amount of CLEARANCE.
5. Rapid traverse along the X-Y axis up to the next starting point (B).
6. Descent along the Z axis in rapid traverse up to END POINT Z.
7. 3.- 6. is repeated up to the ending point (D).
8. Rise along the Z axis in rapid traverse by an amount of CLEARANCE.
Bi - direction
a) In the case of rough cutting
1. Rapid traverse up to the starting point (A).
2. Rapid traverse along the Z axis up to the point equal to
(END POINT Z + REMOVAL DEPTH – REMOVAL PITCH)
3. Cutting feed to the other side (B) in the X axis (U direction).
4. Rapid traverse in the Y axis (V direction) to next starting point (C) according to
CUTTING WITDH.
5. Cutting feed to the other side (D) in the X axis (U direction).
6. Rapid traverse in the Y axis (V direction) to next starting point according to CUTTING
WITDH.
7. 3.- 6. is repeated up to the ending point (D).
8. Rise along the Z axis in rapid traverse by an amount of CLEARANCE.
9. Repeat steps 1. to 8. advancing in the –Z direction, pitch by pitch, up to the point
(END POINT Z + FINISHING ALW.).
10. Rise along the Z axis up to the point (END POINT Z + FINISHING ALW. + CLEARANCE).
