Stock

This cycle allows us to carry out a roughing on the stock, that is to say the polyhedron (block of material) defined on values in Xmini, Xmaxi, Ymini, Ymaxi, Zmini, Zmaxi, around the part.
The trajectories will be generated in relation to this polyhedron, the number of passes in XY is defined automatically.

Key Points

Ability to define a normal stock allowance throughout the part.
There is no thickness to define since there is a management of the stock.

Note that in the case of a negative allowance, the value cannot be greater than the corner radius of the tool used (For radius = 3, allowance - 4 impossible).
