Superimposed contours
Fundamentals
Pockets and islands can be overlapped to form a new contour. You
can thus enlarge the area of a pocket by another pocket or reduce it
by an island.

Subprograms: overlapping pockets
The subsequent programming examples are contour
subprograms that are called by Cycle 14 CONTOUR
GEOMETRY in a main program.
Pockets A and B overlap.
The TNC calculates the points of intersection S1 and S2 (they do
not have to be programmed).
The pockets are programmed as full circles.
