Degression Factor – Specify a factor to calculate how the depth of cut for each successive pass is reduced.
|
Degression Factor |
= 1 |
produces a constant depth cut. |
|
|
= 2 |
produces a constant volume cut (the default). |
You can specify intermediate factors to produce other results somewhere
between these two states.
The depth of cut for the current pass is calculated using this equation:

where:
|
Depth |
The depth of cut for the current pass |
|
Cut Increment |
The specified Cut Increment parameter |
|
Pass |
The current pass number |
|
Degression |
The specified Degression Factor parameter |
