Groove roughing method : Plunge

Links:

The 'groove roughing' function

Purpose

The tool makes successive parallel plunges which are spaced out with  the radial pass depth, and this, by starting from the stock to go until the finish part.

Each of these plunges can be interrupted according to the axial depth. In every interruption, the tool goes back with the security distance value to break the chip.

A delay can be used at the bottom of the groove to be sure to finish it.
