Function
The "Grooving residual material" function is used when you want to machine the material
that remained after grooving along the contour.
During grooving ShopTurn, the cycle automatically detects any residual material and
generates an updated blank contour. For a G code program, the function must have been
previously selected. Material that remains as part of the finishing allowance is not residual
material. The "Grooving residual material" function allows you to remove unwanted material
with a suitable tool.
To machine residual mater
