P-CHAN-00321

Merge short blocks for optimised contouring

Description

This parameter merges single blocks which are shorter than the specified tolerance to the next adjacent block. Merging provides contour smoothing operations with better results since they require fewer and longer motion blocks.

Parameter

block_filter_tolerance

Data type

REAL64

Data range

0 ≤ block_filter_tolerance < MAX(REAL64)

Dimension

0.1µm

Default value

0.0
