    Cylindrical interpolation Question????

    Hi guys,

    I run a Hyundai-Kia SkT-250MS lathe.
    Can I use Cylindrical interpolation to ingrave text on the O.D. of a piece of round stock? Reading the book I think you have to use Degree's of rotation for the C axis.

    I think I can do it using the polar interpolation on the face of a part but I want to do it on the O.D.


    thanks ahead of time guys...

    Circumference/360 = degrees of rotation.
