Variable Depth Roughing

This new roughing parameter allows you to vary the point that the surface contacts the tool insert to prevent notching and improve tool life. The depth can vary up to 25% of the cut depth. A positive value results in an upward cut and a negative value results in a downward cut.

• The passes alternate between angled and straight.
• If the cut length is less than three times the cut depth, a straight cut is made instead of an angled cut.
• In flat areas, a straight cut is made instead of an angled cut.
• One way and zigzag cuts are both supported, as well as ID, OD, Face, Back and Angled.
