    Don't mean spiral tool entry into the material, suppose could be called ramped profile.?. The toolpath I'm talking about will ramp/spiral down the whole way around the profile to the depth you set.
    Ie set 3mm doc and it starts at Z0 and does one lap until reaches until reaches 3mm then does another until reaches 6mm etc. It never lifts or retracts tool until at the finished depth.
    It's much faster and less stressful on tooling.
