hello all,
I am new to cnc lathe work, learning it as I go and all. I have a job that is going to require threading a piece of 1 inch for 1-8 NC threads. I'm doing this on a Haas TL! and have been using the Visual Programming for most of what I've done so far. I have tried some test threading on it using the VPS and the info in t he workbook but so far it hasn't turned out right. I am wanting to thread these so I don't have to run a die over them of if so take a minimum off with it. Right now the pieces are turned to 1.001 or so diameter. Could someone post a code that would get me close to finishing like I want.? As in how deep per pass and final depth and all. I realize I may have to make minor adjustments but I would like to start close.
I appreciate any help you can send
