Restrictions of plunge roughing

  • Plunge roughing is limited to center cutting tools. While you could use non-center cutting tools, nothing is done to specifically accommodate the use of such tools.
  • There is no control of the retract distance. Retracts are performed in the Z-direction.
  • There is no pecking. Each plunge is performed as a straight linear move.
  • The Uphill Only and Downhill Only settings do not apply.
