From the final cutter position of Figure 25.1, the control moves the cutter
twice around the programmed contour of the pocket as shown in
Figure 25.2. The first pass around the pocket removes material twice the
cutter radius (cutter diameter) in width (D through I in Figure 25.2). The
second pass removes material that is one cutter radius in width (I through
N in Figure 25.2).
