Saving the contour

Saving the generated contour in the simulation

You can save a contour generated in the simulation and read it into
smart.Turn. In smart.Turn, you insert into the program the workpiece
blank and finished part contour that you generated during simulation.
Select the "Insert contour" function on the "ICP" menu.

Example: You describe the blank form and finished part and simulate
machining of the first setup. Then you save the machined contour and
use it for the second setup.

During contour generation, the simulation saves:

BLANK: The simulated contour's state of progress

FINISHED PART: The programmed finished part

The simulation takes into account a shift of the workpiece zero point
and/or a mirror image.

Saving the contour:

Select "miscellaneous functions" soft key

Select the "Misc." menu

Select the "Save contour" menu

The control opens a dialog box enabling you to define the following
input fields:

Unit: Contour description metric or in inches

Shift: Shifting the workpiece zero point

Mirroring: Mirror/do not mirror the contours
