When a FLOAT TAP hole canned cycle is selected on the Cycles Data or Edit Cycles dialog, the following settings are available on the Edit Hole Operation dialog:
Hole Canned Cycle — This field displays the name of the hole canned cycle selected on the Cycles Data or Edit Cycle dialogs.
Hole Diameter (D) — This field displays the diameter of the hole. The value is taken from the Hole Diam field on the Cycles Data or Edit Cycle dialogs.
Depth (H) — This field displays the depth of the hole. The value is taken from the Depth field on the Cycles Data or Edit Cycle dialogs.
Retract Type — This field displays the retract type. In a FLOAT TAP hole canned cycle, the tool retracts completely out of the hole after each step.
Retract Motion — This field displays the retract motion. In a FLOAT TAP hole canned cycle, the tool makes a rapid move when it retracts.
Output Hole Canned Cycle — This option is selected by default so the machining operation for the hole is output as a canned cycle in the NC Program file. If your postprocessor does not support all of the parameters for this canned cycle, deselect this option.
Index Broach Options — This option does not apply to this cycle.
