Tool radius compensation
10.2 Contour approach and retraction (NORM, KONT, KONTC, KONTT)
Example
KONTC
The full circle is approached beginning at the circle center point. The direction and curvature
radius at the block end point of the approach block are identical to the values of the next
circle. Infeed takes place in the Z direction in both approach/retraction blocks
simultaneously. The figure below shows the perpendicular projection of the tool path.

The associated NC program segment is as follows:
