Depth Calculation

Cycle: Jig Boring, Drilling, Counter Boring, Tapping, Toolpath, Plunge Pocketting

Definition

Previously, the depth of tapping operation was calculated at tip only, now the calculation can be at tip or at diameter.

On the left: calculation at tip of tap tool.

On the right: calculation at diameter of tap tool.

 This new type of calculation generates other improvement: the tap tool has a new parameter Chamfer Height. If the value is 0, the chamfer is the pitch of tool.

In the case of standard holes, we advise to calculate at diameter, it will respect exactly the size of the holes (in red).
