CoroMill® Plura
CoroMill Plura has an individual radius programming value (RPRG)
marked on the shank of the tool.
The RPRG value indicates each cutter’s exact pitch diameter and
the radius required for optimum thread quality.
The RPRG value is normally entered into the tool memory offset.
Using the RPRG will prevent the fi rst thread from being too large, as
long as the operational conditions are good.
