Horiz. Cutters Overlap
Vert. Cutters Overlap
Cutters Overlap
If multiple cutters are defined for a procedure (in the Cutters
& Holders parameter table), additional parameters are displayed
in the Tool Trajectory table.
These parameters define the type of overlap (if any) between the tool
pass of one cutter and that of another cutter.
These parameters are Horiz. Cutters Overlap, Vert. Cutters Overlap and Cutters
Overlap.
The options that are available for these Overlap parameters, depend upon
the procedure and the settings of other parameters.
These Overlap parameters appear in the follow procedures (if multiple cutters are defined): Finish - all types, Cleanup and Pencil.
