    Camworks Turning / Lathe and Tool BCA

    Camworks 2001 plus

    I am new to using Camworks for turning, however I am very experienced with in in milling.

    I notice that the AFR in turning uses feature back clearance angle.

    But I dont see where you can actually store an insert+holders back clearance angle anywhere.

    So is this just a matter of setting up the AFR to pick tools you "know" have the right BCA for a given BCA range, but you never actually put the BCA number in anywhere?

    Thanks for any help!
