Metric ISO thread G35
G35 cuts a longitudinal thread (internal or external thread). The thread
starts at the current tool position and ends at the end point X, Z.
From the tool position relative to the end point of the thread,
MANUALplus automatically determines whether an internal or
external thread is to be cut.

Parameters
X End point of thread (diameter)
Z End point of thread
F Thread pitch
I Maximum approach (infeed)
No input: I is calculated from the thread pitch and the thread
depth.
Q Number of air cuts after the last cut (for reducing the cutting
pressure in the thread base)—(default: 0)
V Approach (type of infeed) (default: 0)
0: Constant cross section for all cuts
1: Constant infeed
2: W/ remaining cutting (with distribution of remaining
cuts). First infeed = Remainder of the division of thread
depth/cutting depth. The last cut is divided into four partial
cuts: 1/2, 1/4, 1/8 and 1/8.
3: Infeed is calculated from the pitch and spindle speed
4: Same as MANUALplus 4110
Cycle stop—the MANUALplus retracts the tool from
the thread groove and then stops all tool movements.
(Lift-off distance: OEM configuration parameter:

If you are programming an internal thread, it is advisable
to preset the thread pitch F since the diameter of the
longitudinal element is not the thread diameter. If you
have MANUALplus calculate the thread pitch
automatically, slight deviations may occur.
Cycle run
1 Calculates the number of cutting passes.
2 Executes a thread cut.
3 Returns at rapid traverse and approaches for next pass.
4 Repeats 2 to 3 until the complete thread has been cut.
5 Executes air cuts.
6 Returns to starting point.
