Longitudinal grooving

The Long option enables you to execute longitudinal grooving (the working direction is the Z-axis direction).

The following options are available in Mode:

  • Long external grooving (above the geometry).

  • Long internal grooving (below the geometry).

If the defined geometry does not intersect with the material boundary, it is extended by lines perpendicular to the Z-axis that are drawn from its ends up to the material boundary. In this manner, the area that has to be grooved is defined.
