Is there support for g96 ( constant turning speed ) or g99 ( feed per rev )?

Will there be support for g70, g71,g72,g73,g74 stock removal codes as they become available in EMC?

Is the G31.1 rigid tapping available?

Once the VMC is done, it will be time to retrofit the lathe.

I would be interested in more lathe G codes operations too.
Especially threading geared to the spindle.

Hi Todd,

No not currently. Theading and Rigid tapping are only integrated into the Mach3 Plugin. You could possibly do Threading and Rigid tapping from Macros calling C programs under KMotionCNC but it would be complicated. Eventually we plan to incorporate those.

Adding G70-G74 would be a separate effort from anything going on in EMC2.
