Shape of the helix
The table below illustrates in which way the shape of the helix is
determined by the work direction, direction of rotation and radius
compensation.
Internal thread Work direction Direction Radius comp.

Right-handed Z– DR– RR
Left-handed Z– DR+ RL

Programming a helix
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 from
–5400° to +5400°. If the thread has of more than 15
revolutions, program the helix in a program section
repeat (see section 9.2 ”Program Section Repeats”).
ú
Polar coordinates angle: Enter the total angle of tool
traverse along the helix in incremental dimensions.
After entering the angle, identify the tool axis with
an axis selection key.
ú
Enter the coordinate for the height of the helix in
incremental dimensions.
ú
Direction of rotation DR
Clockwise helix: DR–
Counterclockwise helix: DR+
ú
Radius compensation RL/RR/R0
Enter the radius compensation according to the table
above.
