Turning Part is a toolpath strategy that cuts the part off the bar stock. It may be during a bar feed operation, but not always. Parting is usually the final operation in a setup, because the part will fall off into a bin or parts catcher. Fusion is smart enough to know that this toolpath is used to cut off the back of the part. Because of that, you will find there are very few parameters that need to be changed.
