Z Reference point
K Recess width without chamfer/rounding arc
I Recess depth
U Diameter of recess base (only for axial recess)
A Recess angle, angle between the recess edges
(0° <= A < 180°)
1. Corner:
 No: No chamfer/rounding
 Chamfer: Chamfered edge
 Rounding: Rounded corner
P Width of chamfer / radius of rounding (1st corner)
2. Corner:
 No: No chamfer/rounding
 Chamfer: Chamfered edge
 Rounding: Rounded corner
B Width of chamfer / radius of rounding (2nd corner)
R Radius at bottom (inside radius in both recess corners)
The CNC PILOT refers the recess depth to the reference
