Manual grooving/parting
Functionality
The "Manual grooving" function is suitable for producing grooves on the peripheral surface
and face end and for tapping turned parts. Groove cycles can be used to produce filleted
corners or beveled edges on surfaces.
In addition, the "Multiple execution" function can be used to produce multiple tappings and
multiple grooves with a uniform offset.
Note
The grooving tool must be configured in the tool list; in doing so, the width of the tool must be
programmed via the parameter Panel width or via Cutting edge 1 (D1), Cutting edge 2 (D2).
