Deep-hole Solid Tap Function (G184, G174)*
When carrying out large-diameter hole tapping or deep-hole tapping operation, it is difficult to
finish tapping in a single step of tapping operation due to chips accumulated inside the hole and
cutting load that increases as tapping cycle progresses. In such cases, tapping cycle has to be
repeated until the thread is cut to the bottom of the hole.
The tapping cycle can be repeated by a single block of commands by specifying the G 184 or G
174 command in the solid tap mode (G93).
