Plugins: Flatten
The Flatten tool generates a pocketing region using a different approach:
-
X-start & Y-start are relative to your WCS
-
Width is the X dimension of the area to be flattened
-
Height is the Y dimension of the area to be flattened
-
Depth is the Z dimension to be flattened (must be negative)
-
Raster Border will cause a new cut around the perimeter of the area to be flattened that is aproximately half the width of the cutting tool
-
Pocket Type may be either:
- Raster : create a Zig-Zag path from a corner to the opposite
- Offset : create a series of bigger rectangles starting from the center
-
Depth target is reached in multiple steps with step size as defined in the Stock material
from material database 
.
Note: The path tries to maintain the desired Stepover % as defined in the EndMill
