Need Help with G33 for OD Thread on a Siemens 840d controlled lathe
Hi, my name is Brian and I'm a newer CNC Programmer from New Castle, PA
I need to G-Code program OD Thread on a Siemens 840d controlled lathe.
Locknut Thread AN-24 TPI=12 Pitch Dia.=4.6619 OD=4.7160
Siemens Sinumerik Online manual is vague on how to use G33 cycle (so many options, this is a basic OD thread).
I've programmed this on our AB controlled machines using G21 X2.304 Z24.8 E12 (final pass) canned cycle.
Thank You for any suggestions or comments.
