In smart.Turn you can make:
 Blank contours and auxiliary blank contours
 Finished part contours and auxiliary contours
 Standard figures and complex contours for C-axis machining
 on the face
 on the lateral surface
 Standard figures and complex contours for Y-axis machining
 on the XY plane
 on the YZ plane
Blank contours and auxiliary blank contours: You describe
complex blanks element by element—like finished parts. You select
the standard forms bar and tube by menu and describe them with a
few parameters (see “Defining the workpiece blank” auf Seite 400). If
a definition of the finished part exists, you can also select "Cast part"
in the menu.
Figures and patterns for C and Y axis machining: You describe
complex milling contours element by element. The following standard
figures are prepared. You select the figures by menu and describe
them with a few parameters:
 Circle
 Rectangle
 Polygon
 Linear slot
 Circular slot
 Hole
You can arrange these figures and holes as linear or circular patterns
on the face or lateral surface as well as in the XY or YZ plane.
You can import DXF contours and integrate them in the smart.Turn
program.
You can load cycle programming contours and integrate them in the
smart.Turn program. smart.Turn supports the loading of the following
contours:
 Workpiece blank description (extension *.gmr): Loaded as blank
contour or auxiliary blank contour
 Contour for turning (extension *.gmi): Loaded as finished part
contour or auxiliary contour
 Face contour (extension *.gms)
 Lateral surface contour (extension *.gmm)
ICP uses G codes to describe the contours created in the
smart.Turn program.
