During grooving ShopTurn, the cycle automatically detects any residual material and generates
an updated blank contour. For a G code program, the function must have been previously
selected. Material that remains as part of the finishing allowance is not residual material. The
"Grooving residual material" function allows you to remove unwanted material with a suitable
tool.
Software option
To machine residual material, you require the "Residual material detection and
machining" option.
Procedure
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 "Grooving residual material" softkey.
The "Grooving residual material" input window is opened.
