Tapered thread
For tapered threads (2 axis values required), the required lead address I or K of the axis with
the larger travel (longer thread) must be used. A second lead is not defined.
Starting point offset SF=
A starting point offset is required for the spindle if a multiple-start thread or a thread in offset
sections is to be machined. The starting point offset is programmed in the thread block with
G33 under the address SF (absolute position).
If no starting point offset SF is written, the value from the setting data "Starting angle of
thread" is active (SD 4200: THREAD_START_ANGLE) is active.
Please note: A programmed value for SF must always be entered in the setting data.
Programming example
Cylindrical thread, double-thread, starting point offset 180 degrees, thread length (including
run-in and run-out) 100 mm, thread lead 4 mm/rev.

Multi-block thread
If multiple thread blocks are programmed consecutively (multi-block thread), it only makes
sense to define a starting point offset in the 1st thread block. The value is only used here.
Multi-block threads are connected automatically in G64 continuous path mode.
