Kentech Inc. is pleased to announce the release of Version 18.4.0 of our KipwareXC\u00ae – G Code Conversion Software<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Among other “under the hood” revisions and improvements, Version 18.4.0 contains a new feature that will reverse calculate feedrates for standard tapping and rigid tapping cycles.<\/p>\n

Users have been requesting this feature because they have run across G code conversion scenarios where one machine uses a tapping feedrate based on IPM ( pitch x RPM ) and the other machine utilizes the F(eedrate) expressed as a function of the thread pitch.<\/p>\n

As you can see from the screenshot below …<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

… users can define a few parameters in the PROFILE to effect this conversion. Among them are :<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Turn the function ON or OFF using the “Reverse Calculate Tapping F” checkbox<\/li>\n
  2. Designate the tapping G code that will act as a “trigger code” to activate the conversion.<\/li>\n
  3. Designate the direction of the conversion … IPM to PITCH or PITCH to IMP.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The TAPPING G CODE acts as a trigger. When KipwareXC\u00ae<\/a> sees this G code, and the function is turned on, the conversion will be executed based on the direction specified and the original F command will be replaced by the newly calculated F command. This is a powerful feature that will remove the need for any manual calculations\u00a0 and eliminating the potential for calculation errors.<\/p>\n

    Version 18.4.0 and this new feature is currently shipping standard with all KipwareXC\u00ae<\/a> purchases as of this writing.<\/p>\n
