Start pocketing

The strategy of the tool motion within the limits of one layer is defined in the <Start pocketing> panel. If to start machining <In area centre> the path length in a plane will be less, rather than if to start machining <Out of workpiece>. In this case the tool will plunge in a material even in the event that it is possible to lift down behind. As investigation, a machining time considerably may increase at the expense of application of the plunge scheme.
