To Create a Facing Thread Turning NC Sequence
A facing thread NC sequence, consisting of a single radial tool move, can be created using the general procedure of creating a Thread Turning NC Sequence. Choose Face as the tread orientation option, and sketch the line representing the tool movement at the final thread depth off the face of the part. This NC sequence will output the OP / THREAD, FACE, and appropriate GOTO commands instead of THREAD/AUTO. You must specify a nonzero value for THREAD_FEED.
