Turret Setup

The turret information is a component of the machine file. It contains information about each tool station, such as size, keyed angles (or auto-index), over travels and clamp dead zones. You access the turret information by selecting Turret Info from the Machine menu.

WARNING!

This information is critical! If the information is incorrect, the NC code will be inaccurate and damage to your machine might occur. You should carefully review the information provided by the machine manufacturer to ensure the accuracy of your turret information.
