Introduction

Leads are an additional move added to the start and end of the cut. The Leads page handles both lead-in and lead-out moves for the Groove Rough Operation. This topic explains the lead parameters that are used for this operation.

 

Lead-in

The Lead-in is an additional move prior to the initial cut into the material. The Lead-in allows you to specify how the cut is approached.

 

 

Lead-out

The Lead-out is an additional move following the last cut in the material. The Lead-out allows you to specify how the tool exits the cut.
