Programming a helix
8 Polar coordinates angle: Enter the total angle of
tool traverse along the helix in incremental
dimensions. After entering the angle, specify the
tool axis with an axis selection key.
8 Coordinate: Enter the coordinate for the height of the
helix in incremental dimensions.
8 Direction of rotation DR
Clockwise helix: DR–
Counterclockwise helix: DR+
Example NC blocks: Thread M6 x 1 mm with 5 revolutions
Always enter the same algebraic sign for the direction of
rotation DR and the incremental total angle IPA. The tool
may otherwise move in a wrong path and damage the
contour.
For the total angle IPA, you can enter a value from –5400°
to +5400°. If the thread has more than 15 revolutions,
program the helix in a program section repeat (see
“Program Section Repeats” on page 518).
