The lathe finishing operations are designed for the removing of a small stock volume that is remained after the previous machining. The machining is performed by the series of the offset strokes to the part generatrix.

Tool path can be generated without workpiece checking. This mode can be used after the preliminary rough machining or if the initial workpiece is near to the part.

To define the working zone just open Job assignment page, select geometrical primitives that you want to machine and click to the button with the strategy you want to use. After that you can drag start/end point of contour on the screen directly to reduce job zone.

The following strategies allowed for finishing operations:

See the page of cycle parameters for detailed description of each strategy and Job assignment definition page for geometrical properties.
