Plunging, Retracting, and Connecting Cuts Z-Planes for 4- and 5-Axis Machining Z-Planes for 4- and 5-Axis Machining This module gives a brief explanation about z-planes, surface attitudes and Cplanes. Z-Planes The following figure shows the z-planes that are used by CVNC-M5 commands. The syntax for the commands that set up the z-planes is described in the CVNC Milling Command Reference. Figure 3-1 CVNC-M5 Z-Planes When deciding on the height of the retract and approach planes, give careful consideration to the attitude of the surface in the current machining Cplane. Surfaces should be oriented as near to the horizontal in the machining Cplane as possible, as shown at B in the following figure. 3-4 CVNC-M5 User Guide
