With multiple threads, the individual thread turns aremachined one after the other.You define a right or left-hand thread by the direction of spindle rotation and the feed direction.The infeed is performed automatically with a constant infeed depth or constant cutting cross-section.● With a constant infeed depth, the cutting cross-section increases from cut to cut. Thefinishing allowance is machined in one cut after roughing.A constant infeed depth can produce better cutting conditions at small thread depths.● With a constant cutting cross-section, the cutting pressure remains constant over allroughing cuts and the infeed depth is reduced.The feedrate override has no effect during traversing blocks with thread. The spindle overridemust not be changed during the thread machining.Programming technology functions (cycles)10.2 RotateTurning376 Operating Manual, 05/2017, A5E40868721
