length cutting
Explanation:
This seems to be the term, tho my TNC doesn't have 'längdning'. Have seen 'length cutting optimisation', tho the cutting operation is also called 'bucking'.

agree  Kristian Andersson: Your term might be better, I mainly wanted to explain the meaning. 'Bucking' is probably what we call 'aptering' in Swedish!
