Note
The approach behavior is symmetrical to the retraction behavior.
The approach/retraction behavior is determined by the state of the G command in the approach/
retraction block. The approach behavior can therefore be set independently of the retraction
behavior.
Examples
Example 1: Retraction behavior with G460
The following example describes only the situation for deactivation of tool radius
compensation: The behavior for approach is exactly the same.

Further information
G461
If no intersection is possible between the last TRC block and a preceding block, the offset curve
of this block is extended with a circle whose center point lies at the end point of the uncorrected
block and whose radius is equal to the tool radius.
The control attempts to cut this circle with one of the preceding blocks.
