I wonder where it got this idea from? (in Master one can use "D" for this, H remains spring passes)
------begin AI slop------- LinuxCNC G-Code Approach (G76) In LinuxCNC, multi-start threading is streamlined using the G76 threading cycle. The core to automating this is the H parameter (number of thread starts) or using successive passes with a calculated Z-axis shift, depending on your specific version's recent feature update. If your version fully automates it, your block will look similar to this: gcode G76 P0.5 Z-20.0 I-0.3 K0.4 F3.0 H6 ... Use code with caution. • F (Feedrate/Lead): This must be set to the total Lead, not the pitch. (e.g., if Pitch = 0.5mm, then F = 3.0). • H (Starts): Set to 6. LinuxCNC will automatically index the spindle's index pulse by 60° increments for each start. -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
