Parameter Description Unit
P
• Thread pitch in mm/revolution
• Thread pitch in inch/revolution
• Thread turns per inch
• Thread pitch in MODULUS
mm/rev
in/rev
turns/"
MODULUS
G Change in thread pitch per revolution - (only for P = mm/rev or in/rev)
G = 0: The thread pitch P does not change.
G > 0: The thread pitch P increases by the value G per revolution.
G < 0: The thread pitch P decreases by the value G per revolution.
If the start and end pitch of the thread are known, the pitch change to be
programmed can be calculated as follows:
|P

- P

G = ----------------- [mm/rev2]
2 * Z
1
The meanings are as follows:
P
e
: End pitch of thread [mm/rev]
P: Start pitch of thread [mm/rev]
Z
1
: Thread length [mm]
A larger pitch results in a larger distance between the thread turns on the
workpiece.

Machining
• ∇ (roughing)
• ∇∇∇ (finishing)
• ∇ + ∇∇∇ (roughing and finishing)
Infeed (only for ∇ and ∇
+ ∇∇∇)
• Linear:
Infeed with constant cutting depth
• Degressive:
Infeed with constant cutting cross-section
Thread
• Internal thread
• External thread
X0 Reference point X ∅ (abs, always diameter) mm
Z0 Reference point Z (abs) mm
X1 or
X1α
End point X ∅ (abs) or end point in relation to X0 (inc) or
Thread taper
Incremental dimensions: The sign is also evaluated.
mm or
degrees
Z1 End point Z (abs) or end point in relation to Z0 (inc)
Incremental dimensions: The sign is also evaluated.
