About Pocket Milling
Pocketing can be used to finish mill after a rough Volume operation, or for direct finishing. The surfaces selected must allow for a continuous tool path. The pocket may include horizontal, vertical, or slanted surfaces. The walls of the pocket will be milled as with Profiling, the bottom—as the bottom surfaces in Volume milling.
