Contour Rework

This cycle is define after a contouring cycle and is aimed at reworking automatically areas where the previous tool could not go.

Key Points

  • The tool passes only in areas with residual material.

  • Ability to define an auto finish cycle just after the rework.

  • Need to define the diameter of the tool and the stock left for the roughing cycle.
