Approach/retraction
1. The tool moves to the starting point calculated internally in the cycle at rapid traverse.
2. Thread with advance:
The tool moves at rapid traverse to the first starting position displaced by the thread
advance LW.
Thread with run-in:
The tool moves at rapid traverse to the starting position displaced by the thread run-in
LW2.
3. The first cut is made with thread pitch P as far as the thread run-out LR.
4. Thread with advance:
The tool moves at rapid traverse to the return distance VR and then to the next starting
position.
Thread with run-in:
The tool moves at rapid traverse to the return distance VR and then back to the starting
position.
5. Steps 3 and 4 are repeated until the thread is finished.
6. The tool moves back to the retraction plane at rapid traverse.
Thread machining can be stopped at any time with the "Rapid lift" function. It ensures that
the tool does not damage the thread when it is raised.
