Pitch ...
● in MODULUS: For instance, used for worms that mesh with a gearwheel.
● per inch: Used with pipe threads, for example.
When entered per inch, enter the integer number in front of the decimal point in the
first parameter field and the figures after the decimal point as a fraction in the second
and third field.
● in mm/rev
● in inch/rev
The tool used depends on the thread pitch.
