The pitch is determined by the tool used.
Z2
Retraction amount before thread milling
The thread depth in the direction of the tool axis is defined using Z2. Z2 is relative to
the tool tip.

Milling direction
Climbing: Mill thread in one cycle.
•
Conventional: Mill thread in one cycle.
•
Climbing - conventional: Mill thread in two cycles: rough cutting is performed by
•
conventional milling with defined allowances, then finish cutting is performed with
climb milling with milling feedrate FS.
FS
Finishing feedrate rate - (only for climbing - conventional milling)
