Calculation of Z Steps for Z repeat

Cycles: Z Repeat Pocket, Z Repeat Facing

Definition

This option enables you to enter the parameters of the pass in Z.

Z Step (Ap)

This is the Z increment between each pass. It corresponds to the cutting of the total depth. If the incremental depth is greater than the maximum depth of pass of the tool, there is a warning message.

Constant Z Step

Yes: GO2cam recalculates the Z step, so that the different passes will have the same Z value. If the island altitude or the bottom altitude does not fit with the Z value, these surfaces won't be manucfactured. It will remain a Z stock allowance on these surfaces.
No: GO2cam recalculates the Z step, so that all the surfaces will be manufactured.
