Customize drill parameters

[dnguyen1]

Anyone can help me how to customize the drill parameter? Because My drill parameter that doest'n has a peck drill cycle, when I tried to do the deep hole, it's just happened this morning.

 

Thanks for your help

Mastercam comes with 3 drill cycles (not including the tap, bore, etc... cycles - they are in there too). The three cycles are Drill/Counterbore - meaning "No Peck"

Peck Drill - meaning "Full Retract"

and Chip Break - meaning small retract

 

What type of cycle would you like to create? One thing ot remember is to create a custom drill cycle, you machine has to support it. You'll need to know what the variables are - meaning P, K, R, Q, etc... then you'll need to know how ot access them in the post. For this, you should really speak with your Mastercam Reseller as this is beyond the scope of they type of support offered here. It would require a quite in depth reply.
