Programming a helix
 Polar coordinates angle: Enter the total angle of
tool traverse along the helix in incremental
dimensions. After entering the angle, specify the
tool axis with an axis selection key.
 Coordinate: Enter the coordinate for the height of the
helix in incremental dimensions.
 Direction of rotation DR
Clockwise helix: DR–
Counterclockwise helix: DR+
Example NC blocks: Thread M6 x 1 mm with 5 revolutions

Always enter the same algebraic sign for the direction of
rotation DR and the incremental total angle IPA. The tool
may otherwise move in a wrong path and damage the
contour.
For the total angle IPA you can enter a value of
-99, 999.9999° to +99,999.9999°.
