Hello All,

I just tried tapping today on my Hurco MB1. I am using G code and I keep receiving a "tap stroke too short" message when the tool gets to what I think is the programmed Z depth. I am trying to tap a hole .500 deep , Z0 is the top of the part. I've tried changing both the coordinate in the program and the feed rate. I am assuming feed rate needs to be programmed in IPM and not IPR.

I am using a 3/8-16 tap and the programmed feed rate is 62.5. I've been a fanuc guy all of my live so this MB1 is new to me.

Can anyone help me out with this?

Thanks.
