Hello all,
I need mill a helix using only one line in my nc. So, i need output the
pitch value and the depth value of the thread.
To output the pitch value with the template #INC, but i don't know how
output the depth value.
The section will be anything like this:

(#S17 = pitch value)
(#S18 = depth value)
#EVAL(#V19=INT(#S18/#S17))
#MOV X#XPOS Y#YPOS I#XCTR J#YCTR Z#ZPOS TURN=#V19 F#FEED
(where turn is the number of complete turns in the helix)

outputing, for example: G03 X67.0 Y35.0 I-32.0 J0.0 Z0.0 TURN=12 F48


Any help will be really appreciated.
Thanks all.
