Hi everyone, I ran across the mention of ceramic insert geometry in the form of a string of numbers separated by commas. But I am not able to find what those values correspond. My example that I see in a pdf on Machining Forces and Merchants Circle:
"... a ceramic insert with geometry 0deg,-10deg,6deg,6deg,15deg,75deg,0mm..." (deg=degree and mm=millimeter)

Thanks for any feedback
