Deep-hole tapping: VARI, DAM, VRT
With the VARI parameter, it is possible to distinguish between simple tapping (VARI = 0) and
deep-hole tapping (VARI ≠ 0).
In conjunction with deep-hole tapping, it is possible to choose between chip breaking
(retraction by variable distance from current drilling depth, parameter VRT, VARI = 1) and
chip removal (withdrawal from reference plane VARI = 2). These functions work analogously
to the normal deep-hole drilling cycle CYCLE83.
The incremental drilling depth for one pass is specified via parameter DAM. The cycle
internally calculates the intermediate depth as follows:
● The programmed incremental drilling depth is executed in each step until the rest up to
the final drilling depth is less than (<) 2 x DAM
● The remaining drilling depth is halved and executed in two steps. Thus, the minimum
drilling depth is not smaller than DAM / 2.
Note
The direction of rotation when tapping in the cycle is always reversed automatically.
Programming example1: Rigid tapping
A thread is tapped without compensating chuck at position X30 Y35 in the XY plane; the
tapping axis is the Z axis. No dwell time is programmed; the depth is programmed as a
relative value. The parameters for the direction of rotation and for the lead must be assigned
values. A metric thread M5 is tapped.
