Total stock controls the extent of the toolpaths for a feature.
Enter an offset distance for each Z slice of a feature to use instead of the Stock boundary.
This example shows a Total stock value of a for one Z slice of a Surface Mill feature that is classified as a 3D boss:
A — A Z slice of a 3D boss feature
a — Total stock value
If the Total stock value is 0, the Stock boundary is used, for example:
A — A Z slice of a 3D boss feature
Tip: You can also use
Boundary curves to control the extent of a Z-level rough operation.
