    Single profile thread milling

    Okuma multus b300... Need to thread mill a 1 1/8 - 7 unc 2b internal using a sing prof thrd mill. Its .745 dia. I understand the method, start at bottom and thread out, but the programming got me a bit confused. I dont do much milling yet. Its only .6 deep. Any tips would be great!

    You've been a bit sparce with the info.
    So all I can do is post part of a prog I use.
    Are you threading axially or radially?
    My example is using the slant function but is basically programmed in the XY plane G17 (axially).
    Hope it helps
