The primary tool of the Path workbench is the Path object. A Path object describes the movement that a machine head must perform in order to cut through a block of material, in the case of CNC machines, or to add a layer of printing material, in the case of 3D printers. Path objects can contain not only movement information, but also other instructions for the machine, such as the rotation speed that the cutter must have, or the amount of material that must be used.
