[Supplement]
1) The sign of an I word determines increasing or decreasing taper ("+" for increasing taper and
"-" for decreasing taper). The plus sign (+) may be omitted.
2) The difference in radius between the starting point and end point is expressed by an I word.

Positioning to the thread cutting starting point,
X = 40 mm (in dia.) and Z = 96 mm, at a rapid
feedrate.
Thread lead is commanded as a
lead along the Z-axis.
•
With an I word in the G33 block,the taper
thread cutting cycle indicated in the drawing
above is carried out.
•
X, Z and F words are determined in the same
manner as when cutting a straight thread.
•
The value I in this example can be calculated
according to the following equation:
[(96 - 54)
×
1/3]/2 = 7
Note that the I word specifies
a difference in radius.
Program X dimension (as a diameter) for
each succeeding thread cutting pass.
