Further information
Feedrate for thread cutting with G33
From the programmed spindle speed and the thread lead, the control calculates the required
feedrate with which the turning tool is traversed over the thread length in the longitudinal and/
or transverse direction. The feedrate F is not taken into account for G33, the limitation to
maximum axis velocity (rapid traverse) is monitored by the control.
