- Interference between adjacent three blocks
If an interference is judged to occur between adjacent three blocks, the
interfering vector, as well as any vectors existing inside of it, is erased,
and a path is created to connect the remaining vectors. In the
example shown in the figure below, V
2
and V
5
interfere, so that V
2
and V
5
are erased, so are V
3
and V
4
, which are inside of them, and V
1
is connected to V
6
. The operation during this time is linear
interpolation.

If, after vector erasure, the last single vector still interferes, or if there
is only one vector at the beginning and it interferes, an alarm will
occur immediately after the start of the previous block (end point for a
single block) and the tool stops. In the example shown in the figure
below, V
2
and V
3
interfere, but, even after erasure, an alarm will occur
because the final vectors V
1
and V
4
interfere.
