1) Screen explanation
Select when cutting a thread. It is possible to select up to 10 tools, including the tool used for pre–hole
machining. It is possible to compensate the feed rate when approaching or penetrating during pre–hole
machining with a drill. The chamfering tool is automatically selected. In this machining, canned cycle
(G84/G74) is used.
2) Input item explanation
A : KIND OF TAP
Specify either NORMAL, LEFT–HAND, RIGID NORMAL, or RIGID OPP. NORMAL is specified if
there is no specification.
J : PITCH
Input the pitch (mm) of the thread of the tap.
When drilling a workpiece up to a valid depth by several paths, input the depth of one path. When
no value is input or 0 is input, TAP DEPTH (V) is assumed to be the cutting depth of one path. It
is automatically decided using the [F.S.AUTO] soft key. The pitch corresponding to the value input
Tool ID No. (T) is read out of the tool file and displayed.
Refer to 2.3.1 Drilling for other input items.
