Problem G83 Reduced Peck Cycle - CNCzone.com-The Largest Machinist Community on the net!

Hi,

Thanks for looking at this. I am trying to learn a better way to use the menu sheet on Matercam X4. After selecting reduced peck cycle there are many menus to fill out. My questions are: Does MC have any helpers for getting a feel for what is a good initial peck depth for a small drill?

In this most recent case, Drilling Al 6061 with a #56 drill 0.144" and going 3/4" deep.

Any pointers would help.

What has worked well for me so far is 1 1/2 dia. initial depth (1st peck), 1/2 dia subsequent pecks.
