◦ Follow Curve—Select the curve if it exists or define a curve using the Sketch tool or Datum Curve tool. This is applicable for Face, Trajectory, Roughing, Reroughing, Finishing, Corner Finishing, and Manual Milling.

◦ Automatic Cut and Profile Mill Cut—Create a cut automatically using the machining references. The Automatic Cut option is applicable for Face, Roughing, Reroughing, Finishing, and Corner Finishing and the Profile Mill Cut is applicable for Profile Milling.

◦ Curve Cut—Create a curve trajectory by specifying the curve, offset settings, and references.

◦ Drive Surface Cut—Create a cut motion along surfaces at a specified height. This is applicable for 3–axis trajectory milling.

◦ Approach and Exit Motions

▪ Normal Approach—Create an approach motion normal to the direction of the tool motion.

▪ Tangent Approach—Create an approach motion tangent to the tool motion.

▪ Helical Approach—Create an approach motion where the tool approaches the motion along a helix.

▪ Lead In—Approach a tool motion tangentially along an arc of specified radius.

▪ Plunge—The tool plunges before a selected approach motion.

▪ Normal Exit—Create an exit motion normal to the direction of the tool motion.

▪ Tangent Exit—Create an exit motion tangent to the tool motion.

▪ Helical Exit—Creates a exit motion where the tool exits the motion along a helix. This option is available for Milling NC sequences, except Thread milling. For Thread milling, you can automatically generate helical exit motions using the EXIT_TYPE parameter.

▪ Lead Out—Exit from the current point tangentially to the Automatic Cut motion along an arc of specified radius.

▪ Retract—The tool moves from the current location vertically up to the retract plane.

◦ Goto Motions

▪ Goto Point—Go to a datum point or to a point on the tool path. For 4- and 5-axis NC sequences, you can also specify the tool axis orientation.

▪ Go Delta—Specify tool motions in increments along the axes of the NC sequence coordinate system with respect to the current position of the tool.

▪ Goto Home—Go directly to the Operation HOME point (if specified, using the Home option, when creating the operation).

◦ CL Command—Insert a customized CL command anywhere along the tool path. You can either select a location on the tool path, or you can insert a command at the current tool position.

◦ Copy—Copy the selected tool motion or motions and CL command or commands and place them on the clipboard, for insertion at a different control point.

◦ Cut—Remove the selected tool motion or motions and CL command or commands and place them on the Clipboard, for insertion at a different control point.

◦ Delete—Remove the selected tool motion or motions and CL command or commands.

◦ Edit Definition—Change the selected tool motion or CL command.

◦ Edit Parameters—Modify the parameters of the tool motion.
