Function
The "Dressing and profiling" cycle calculates the starting positons and internally calls
CYCLE432.
This cycle incorporates the geometry of the two wheel types 'straight' and 'inclined', as well
as 'with and without corner radius', 'chamfer', 'relief cut' and 'shoulder'. The parameters are
read in the program from D1-D6 (refer to "Tools and Tool Radius Compensation")
When dressing, the dressed amount is taken into account in the wear parameters of the
current tool offset.
