Ramp type

Direct

The Direct stepover connection type creates a straight linear transition that is perpendicular to the toolpath.

Arc

The Arc stepover connection type creates an arc transition. Set the Diameter parameter to specify the radius of the arc as a percentage of the tool diameter. This example has the Ramp diameter set to 55%:

This example has the Ramp diameter set to 600%:

Line

The Line stepover connection type creates a linear stepover at an angle. The length of the line is determined by multiplying the diameter of the tool by the Ramp diameter parameter.

S-shape

The S-shape stepover connection type creates a stepover move that consists of two arcs. As a result this transition makes a smooth exit from the existing contour to the new contour. The diameter of the arcs is determined by the Ramp diameter parameter.
