Approaching on a straight line with tangential
connection: APPR LT
The tool moves on a straight line from the starting point P
S
to an
auxiliary point P
H
. It then moves to the first contour point P
A
on a
straight line that connects tangentially to the contour. The auxiliary
point P
H
is separated from the first contour point P
A
by the distance
LEN.

Approaching on a straight line perpendicular to
the first contour point: APPR LN
The tool moves on a straight line from the starting point P
S
to an
auxiliary point P
H
. It then to the first contour point P
A
on a straight line
perpendicular to the first contour element. The auxiliary point P
H
is
separated by the distance LEN plus the tool radius from the first
contour point P
A
.
