Remove a finishing operation from the program. Its faces are no longer machined unless another operation covers them.
To keep the operation in CAM Assist but not send it, click Leave out instead. See Which operations get sent to my CAM package?
Delete the operation
- In the Program stage, click the finishing operation's row to open its panel.
- Click Delete at the bottom of the panel.

- Click Yes, Delete.
You see Operation successfully deleted.
Only finishing operations can be deleted. If Delete is greyed out with Apply or discard your changes before deleting an operation., you have a strategy edit open or set aside. Click Apply or Cancel in the strategy editor, or Discard all strategy changes below the operations, then try again.
