Improved Plunge Milling Tool Path

Improved Plunge Milling Tool Path

I have a suggestion that plunge milling be improved in NC.  Plunge Mill manufacturers suggest that the tool back off the cut after plunging, then retracting prior to taking the next plunge.  This does not appear to be possible in Creo 2.0, and from what I understand 3.0 cannot do it either.  Tools would not stand up to the current method of being dragged back across each cut, so I cannot see a use for creating a plunge milling sequence with the available sequence definition.
