Counter Bore Overview

Use the Counter bore strategy to drill the holes as a second boring cycle (G86).

There are several pages associated with the Counter bore strategy:

  • Drilling — The main page used to define a boring drilling toolpath.
  • Retraction — Settings to control how far the thread tool retracts between pecks.
  • Feed rate reduction — Settings to control the feed rate at the top and bottom of a hole relative to the feed rate for the remainder of the hole.
  • Feed rate intersection — Settings to control the feed rate at the intersections of a hole relative to the feed rate for the remainder of the hole.
  • Order — Settings to control the order of machining.
  • Automatic verification — Settings to automatically verify the toolpath when calculating it.

For more information on the Strategy Selector dialog, see Toolpath Strategies.

The common tabs are described in common toolpath strategy pages.
