Feed rate is incorrect

NC FAQ1100

Question:

A feed rate smaller than what was programmed is displayed!

Answer:

The feed rate shown always refers to the cutter’s center point path. During thread milling (circular motion) the programmed feed rate is in effect at the tool’s cutting edge, meaning that the feed rate displayed for the cutter’s center point path is proportionally lower, depending on the tool radius.
