Question on back threading w/Omniturn

If I enter diameters in G33 as a negative or positive, the tool is way out in space. If X is negative, it completes the threading cycle, out in space, and carries on. If I enter dia as positive, it just loops continuously. Well, I don't think it takes 40+ passes to cut a M10x1.5 thread... Can anyone with an Omniturn help me out a bit on exactly how to get this done? My manual gives no examples of back side threading... Thanks, Jon What, no answers yet? Surely someone here must know something about the Omniturn. Seemingly not. -- Cliff |
