Can anyone help me out with programing a 3/8-20 double lead on a Mori Seike CL200 ? I've never came upon this before and not shure how to go about it.

Thanks,

john

Check out the G-code programming forum here on the 'zone. There was a fella trying to cut a 4 start ACME thread. You may find some answeres there...

Thanks, I'll check it out. One person faxed me some info that I think will work, it sure sounds like it will. If anyone else need to know you may just try your first pass then start another pass by off-setting the pitch in z axes. In my case I'm working with 3/8-20 so I'll cut 3/8-10 x 2 starting .050 back in z for my next pass. It sound like sound advice to me but I've not tried it yet. So many thanks to the one who took time ti fax me the info.....
