Stepover
Step-over describes the toolpath section between work passes. For the plane operations it will be an X/Y axis step-over, and for the waterline – Z-axis. A step-over depending on the selected machining type can be performed either in contact with the model, or via the safe plane, or by the distance needed for the approach and / or retraction moves. Step-over cannot contain more than one approach and retraction element.
