Sorry It's been so long. I figured out that I needed to do the 2 revolutions. Thanks for the help folks.

Well this is an Xactform thread mill. I went to their website and it is definitely the one that they recommend to use for this thread.

I'm trying to thread mill a 10-32 hole. On all of the thread mills I've used in the past the teeth are the pitch of the thread. On this particular tool, they are .062 apart. I'm not getting the correct pitch in the thread. I used the following: G1Z-.300 G41D3X.117Fxx G3X.117Y0Z-.2688I-.117J0 G1G40X0 What am I doing wrong? Should the distance traveled in Z be 1/2 of the pitch or something? Thanks in advance.

I ended up just copying the G76 lines and using them with a separate offset. Worked good.

btw, it's a Fanuc 31i control on a Nakamura NTY3.

I have an internal NPT thread in a blind hole. Inserts are failing randomly due to chips in the bore. Is there a way to break up the G76 cycle so that it does half of the thread (radially), stops to clear chips then finishes the thread? I would just run the tool from the bottom coming out but I don't have the right hand bar atm.

My 1st post here. My name is Dan and I work for Kennebec Tool and Die in Augusta, Maine. When I post code for a multi-sided part, instead of it outputting A0, A90, A-90, back to A0, A90 etc...I'm getting A0, A90, A270, A360, A450...How do I get it to output only signed values from the A0 position? Thanks in advance.
