specifications of the work and tool, as shown in Fig. 4-15, and also
indirectly some attention is paid to the production cost. Importantly,
the functional description of Saljé and Redeker can distinguish the
work and tool branches, as well as differentiate the primary and
fixed motions, depth setting and tool approach motions, and fur-
thermore the reset motions.
