compensating chuck, boring 1 ... 5, row of holes, circle of holes, grid of holes, machining
on inclined surfaces
Milling technology:
Thread milling, elongated holes in a circle, grooves in a circle, circumferential groove,
rectangular/circular pocket, face milling, path milling, rectangular/circular spigot,
machining on inclined surfaces, high-speed settings for optimized HSC machining,
engraving cycle
Turning technology:
