Description
● Thread pitch in mm/revolution
● Thread pitch in inch/revolution
● Thread turns per inch
● Thread pitch in MODULUS
Change in thread pitch per revolution - (only for P = mm/rev or in/rev)
G = 0: The thread pitch P does not change.
G > 0: The thread pitch P increases by the value G per revolution.
G < 0: The thread pitch P decreases by the value G per revolution.
If the start and end pitch of the thread are known, the pitch change to be programmed
can be calculated as follows:
|P - P |
2 2
e
G = ----------------- [mm/rev2]
2 * Z
1
The meanings are as follows:
P : End pitch of thread [mm/rev]
e
P: Start pitch of thread [mm/rev]
Z : Thread length [mm]
1
A larger pitch results in a larger distance between the thread turns on the workpiece.
● ∇ (roughing)
● ∇∇∇ (finishing)
● ∇ + ∇∇∇ (roughing and finishing)
● Linear:
Infeed with constant cutting depth
● Degressive:
Infeed with constant cutting cross-section
● Internal thread
● External thread
Reference point X ∅ (abs, always diameter)
Reference point Z (abs)
End point X ∅ (abs) or end point in relation to X0 (inc) or
Thread taper
Incremental dimensions: The sign is also evaluated.
End point Z (abs) or end point in relation to Z0 (inc)
Incremental dimensions: The sign is also evaluated.
