Variable Pitch Helix

*This version is for use with X4 MU1/MU2
For the X4 version - go to the X4 AddOns downloads.

Instructions:

This Add-On is a Create Helix function with a variable pitch option.
It is very similar to the built-in Create Helix function in Mastercam, with these differences...

  • You have control over the start and ending pitch of the helix.
  • Instead of a Taper Angle to control for the varying diameter of the helix, there are Top/Bottom Radius settings.

To install...

  1. Download the .ZIP file to a temporary folder.
  2. Unzip the files.
  3. Run the .EXE installer package.
