Is there a bug in x6 threading toolpath?

Recommended Posts

So I make the toolpaths like I always have, make an drilling operation set parameters copy that operation and pick my threading tap. Before I never had problem with this style but in X6 eventhough I have selected tap, (they all have threading cycle selected in tool library), it still stays in drilling cycle from the previous operation. It seems to happen randomly but it doesnt matter if I have drawed in Mastercam or if its an imported model or old file. Sooner or later I will scrap my part bacause of this. Is anyone else seeing this kind of behaviour?

No problem for us, I can copy a drill cycle and just select a tap from my tool library and it automatically changes the cut type to tapping . X6 MU2

 

Because you're not doing it the way Cannon is. He is copying a toolpath that is already using the tap. I have thesame problem. Happens even when I save a file and re-open.
