Peck Tapping

[Eric S.]

Hi all

 

First off I have a HAAS VF3 with rigid tapping, Mastercam version 8.1.1 and use MPFAN Post.

I have been peck tapping in Mactercam by, creating multiple operations and just varying the depth of cuts until I get to the depth I want. This posts fine but it can take some time to create new mc8 files doing it this way. I am sure it is posible to do in one operation by creating a custom cycle but I do not know how this is done.

Any help would be apreciated.

Thanks

[Tony]
