Select the thread pitch / turns for table "Without" or specify the thread pitch/turns
corresponding to the selection in the thread table:
• Thread pitch in mm/revolution
• Thread pitch in inch/revolution
• Thread turns per inch
• Thread pitch in MODULUS

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 pro-
grammed can be calculated as follows:

The meanings are as follows:
P
e
: End pitch of thread [mm/rev]
P
a
: 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 work-
