6.11.3.8 Accepting contours
Calling the cycles
1. The part program or ShopTurn program to be processed has been cre‐
ated and you are in the editor.
2. Press the "Contour turning" softkey.
3. Press the "New contour" softkey.
Selecting contours
The start and end point are specified for the contour line.
The start point and the direction are selected on a selected element. Beginning at the start
point, the automatic contour line takes all subsequent elements of a contour. The contour line
ends as soon as there are no subsequent elements – or intersections with other elements of the
contour occur.
Note
If a contour includes more elements than can be processed, you will be offered the option of
transferring the contour to the program as pure G code.
This contour then can no longer be edited in the editor.
With the "Undo" softkey, you can undo your contour selection back to a
specific point.
