The Drilling.py module is coded to output a rapid Z move to SafeHeight after every G80 canned cycle call. This is redundant and not needed since canned cycles end with the tool already located at the Safe Height location. The following code snippet shows the rapid Z move after the G80 call. Suggest ...
