Re: 95 LNC 8 threading help
Thanks a lot for the help. I wrote the threading cycle line with G71 a few different ways and I never got it to work. I ended up trying the G33 cycle. What finally worked was G33 with adding the redundant X position to the line of code.
Here is my final program for .685x40 threads. (.665 minor .685 major) ( Done in three passes and a spring pass )
Tool is a Micro 100 (2001000 thread tool)

i have gotten a ton of help from this community and I really appreciate it. You could pretty much thread anything with this format. I now know that. I hope this helps someone that struggled with this as I did.

Re: 95 LNC 8 threading help
hy :) please check attached threading section from the manual
i also have re-writen your code
for smooth finish, use spring pases combined with re-cutting the crest ( using the tool before the thread ) and the chamfers ( towards the root diameter ); operations type & order, and number of repetetions, may vary, depending on threading insert and others
g33 is more powerfull than g71, since it allows better control, but coding it is a bit more demanding
i have used g33 for years, but lately i switched to g34, in order to better manage vanished treads and repositioning motions
is possible to eliminate one turret index, by cutting the chamfer also with the threading insert, using one extra offset, ... and there are others tricks as well / kindly :)
