Our Fanuc EDM at work has three options for tool path during compensation start up. I am not long on this machine and it is configured for the third path according to the parameters (and observed operation). My question is, what is the purpose of the options? I am familiar with the middle path where it places the centre of the tool on a line 90 degrees to the start point. I can’t think of how the other two options would be simpler to use, or who or why they would be used.
