• CUT_FEED—The rate at which the tool moves into the workpiece. The default CUT_FEED is -1.

• CUT_UNITS—IPM (inches per minute-default), FPM (feet per minute), MMPM (millimeters per minute), FPR (feet per revolution), IPR (inches per revolution), MMPR (millimeters per revolution).

• ARC_FEED—Enables you to control the cut feed around arcs. If set to a dash (-) (the default), the CUT_FEED value is used. If set to0, the RAPID statement is output before the CIRCLE statement.

• FREE_FEED—The feed rate used for rapid traverse (RETRACT_UNITS are used for rapid feed rate units). If FREE_FEED is set to 0, the RAPID command is output to the CL file. The default FREE_FEED is a dash (-), in which case the CUT_FEED is used.

• STOCK_ALLOW—The amount of stock left after the NC sequence. The default is -1.

• SHAKEAWAY_DIST—Define the distance to be left on each side of a shakeaway point or vertex. SHAKEAWAY_DIST is specified as an absolute value in the units of the workpiece.

• BURN_IN_OFFSET—Together with the tool parameter CUTTER_DIAM, defines the trajectory of the center of the tool with respect to desired geometry. The default is 0.

• CORNER_LENGTH—Define the size (the side length) of the parallelograms added to the tool path when corner condition is specified. The default is 0.

• CORNER_ANGLE—For a sharp corner, the angle of the parallelogram equals the angle between the adjourning entities, and the CORNER_ANGLE value is ignored. However, if you add a corner condition between two tangent entities, the angle of the parallelogram is defined by the CORNER_ANGLE parameter. The default is0.

• CONCAVE_RADIUS—The radius for a round corner condition at a concave corner.

• CONVEX_RADIUS—The radius for a round corner condition at a convex corner.

• CHAMFER_DIM—The size of a chamfer for a chamfer corner condition.

• COOLANT_OPTION—ON, OFF (default), FLOOD, MIST, TAP, or THRU.

• COOLANT_PRESSURE—NONE (default), LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH.

• POINTS_ONLY (default)—Use this format for machines that have no interpolation. The tool just moves along the edge, according to the tolerance value.

• ARC_ONLY—Use this format for machines that have full circular interpolation. Only the CIRCLE statement and the minimum number of points necessary for post-processing are output to the CL file.

• POINTS_&_ARC—Use this format for machines that have incremental circular interpolation. The CIRCLE statement and the maximum number of points according to the tolerance value are output to the CL file.

• APT_FORMAT—Use it if your post-processor expects the CIRCLE statement to be in the APT format. The default format for the CIRCLE statements in Manufacturing is different from the APT format (see the following illustration).

• NUMBER_OF_ARC_PTS—Specify the number of points to be output to the CL file if CIRC_INTERPOLATION is set to ARC_ONLY. The default is 3.

• CUTCOM—Control tool compensation. Does not reverse material side if you reverse direction. The options are:

◦ ON—Turns on the tool compensation in the CL file. The compensation is Right or Left, depending on CUT_TYPE and SPINDLE_SENSE.

◦ OFF (the default)—No tool compensation provided. CUTCOM statements are not output for cut motions.

◦ Entry/Exit

• APPROACH_DISTANCE—Specify the length of approach motions for contouring NC sequences. The default is 0.

• EXIT_DIST—Specify the length of exit motions for contouring NC sequences. The default is 0.

• ENTRY_ANGLE—Specify the entry angle for a linear lead in, and the arc angle for a radial lead in.

• EXIT_ANGLE—Specify the exit angle for a linear lead out, and the arc angle for a radial lead out.

• ENTRY_RADIUS—Specify the radius for a radial lead in.

• EXIT_RADIUS—Specify the radius for a radial lead out.

• CNTR_SHAKEAWAY_DIST—Specify the distance left for shakeaway in a contouring NC sequence.

• BURN_IN_OFFSET—Specify the distance to offset the toolpath at the start point for material piercing.

• DISTANCE_BETWEEN_SHAKEAWAYS—Specify the distance between shakeaway points for auto creation.

• AUTOSHAKE_TYPE—Specify the type for automatic creation of shakeaway points.

• AUTOSHAKE_COUNT—Specify the number of shakeaway points for auto creation.

• SHRINK_FIRST—Specify the distance by which you can shrink or reduce the contour length from the first point.

• SHRINK_LAST—Specify the distance by which you can shrink or reduce the contour length from the last point.
