Helix Angle

Hi Aldar,

I have a question on entering the helix angle for the tool.
If the tool has a variable helix, such as 35° and 38°, do I enter the lower of the two or take an average.

Regards,

Charles.

Hi.
The difference will only show in feedrate and will be minimal.

I would put 38 deg because that is what manufacturers often advertise.
