73Depth cuts are the cuts taken in the Z direction.Use Depth Cuts: If this check box is checkedthe operation will perform the cuts defined bythe parameters. Otherwise only one cut at thefinal depth will be performed.Max Roughing Steps: This is the maximumcut that will be taken in a roughing cut.Use Even Depth Cuts: If this check box ischecked, all the roughing passes will have thesame distance. If it is left unchecked, cuts willbe taken at the Max Roughing Steps distance,and any rest material will be taken with thelast cut.Number of Cuts (Finish): This is the numberof finish depth cuts in the operation.Steps (Finish): This is the distance of eachfinish pass.Linierize Helix Movements: Some machinescan not make helix movements, and if thischeck box is checked, all helix movementswill be converted to lines in the NC operation.Linearization Tolerance: When the helix isconverted to lines, this will be the maximumerror for the final lines.By Depth: This is only used if multiplepockets are milled in the same operation.If it is selected the cut at each depth will beperformed on all pockets, before any cuts aremade at a new depth.
