chip break tap

[davidtan20]

Hi, guys

Is there any way that I can cnc tap with chip break? I can not find any choice of operations in UG nx8.0 but UG nx8 post builder has chip break tap.

how I can add this extra into operation list? I am talking about heidenhain control.

thank you

I would turn on "Option" for the tap cycle in your drilling or holemaking operation.
When you list you will see CYCLE/TAP,...,OPTION

Hi, Mark Rief

Are you talking about cycle type > edit parameters > specify number of > cycle parameters > option off => ##59 ?

thank you
