Tool path description:
Machining of the face begins near the first corner.
The tool plunges at the Z feed rate.
The tool makes back and forth passes in the XY plane along the
defined length of the face. Tool motion extends beyond the ends of
the rectangle by an amount equal to the tool radius.
The XY step size is determined by the system and will not exceed
the specified percentage of the tool diameter.
The Z step size is determined by the system and will not exceed the
specified distance or number of passes.
The tool retracts to the active datum's retract position between
Z passes.
