Lead Angle

The angle between the tool and the surface. The tool maintains this angle along the milling direction.

Tilt Angle

The side angle between the tool and the surface.

If a positive angle is entered, the angle is measured from the normal to the surface and in the direction in which the tool is moving - a lead angle. If a negative angle is entered, a trailing angle is defined, which is measured from the normal and away from the direction in which the tool is moving.
