Simulation Step

Definition

A Step is a single computation unit in the simulation. During cutting, the default is one spindle revolution per step, which can be modified via Workflow: Basic Machining Simulation.

Time Significance of Step Data

Step data contains information for the time interval between two consecutive steps (i.e., from the previous step to the current step). Since this represents a time interval rather than an instant, many fields are simplified representations of data over that period.
