Patterns

Introduction

This topic will explain the Patterns page of the Lathe Groove Rough operation and all the options found in it. This topic will also provide a link to the next topic.

The Patterns page

The Patterns page gives you control over the pattern of the cut, and how that pattern is sorted.

The Patterns and Parameters page

The Patterns and Parameters page allows you to control the cutting pattern, its sorting, and compensation, while also providing options to adjust the depth of cut, allowance, corner type (rolling over corners or not), and trimming the toolpath to match the stock size and shape.
