Cycle: Jig Boring, Drilling, Counter Boring, Tapping, Toolpath, Plunge Pocketing
Definition
The calculation of the depth of the tapping can be done 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, it is advised to calculate at diameter, it will respect exactly the size of the holes (in red).
