Approaching on a straight line with tangential
connection: APPR LT

Approaching on a straight line perpendicular to
the first contour point: APPR LN
The tool moves on a straight line from the starting point P
auxiliary point P
. It then moves to the first contour point P
H
straight line perpendicular to the first contour element. The auxiliary
point P
is separated by the distance LEN plus the tool radius from the
H
first contour point P
.
