Hi,

I am trying to cut a straight 3/4-10" thread on this part and it keeps giving me a tapered toolpath. Here are my initial thread params:
When I hit Generate, I get a tapered toolpath like this:
If I go back to the parameters, they are changed like this:
Why does it keep changing my parameters?

Thanks,
Brandon

Brandon,

The start point is projected down to the chamfer on the defined part geometry and this results in a taper.
You can change the start Z coordinate to -0.0620146 so set the start X coordinate to 0.375 and extend the Z clearance 0.1303 for the part in question. With the start & end X coordinates being the same, this would not result in a taper. We have an enhancement request not have a taper when programming straight threads on turn threading operation .
