      <description>&lt;P&gt;Is this a modified post processor? Using default settings and a generic Fanuc post, I am not getting what you are:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;N18 G97 S500 M3&lt;BR /&gt;N19 G0 X1.3811 Z0.1969&lt;BR /&gt;N20 G0 Z0.0333&lt;BR /&gt;N21 G1 X0.5838 F10.&lt;BR /&gt;N22 G32 Z-0.7133 F0.07874&lt;BR /&gt;N23 X0.6747 Z-0.7587 F0.07874&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;FONT color="#FF0000"&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;N24 G0 X1.3811&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;N25 Z0.0333&lt;BR /&gt;N26 G1 X0.5692 F10.&lt;BR /&gt;N27 G32 Z-0.706 F0.07874&lt;BR /&gt;N28 X0.6747 Z-0.7587 F0.07874&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;FONT color="#FF0000"&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;N29 G0 X1.3811&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;N30 Z0.0333&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color="#000000"&gt;The short retract move from X.5838 to X .6747 is at a slower feedrate, but then kicks up to a rapid.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color="#000000"&gt;What do you have for Clearances (on the Clearances tab)?&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color="#000000"&gt;Did you modify these choices:&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color="#000000"&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="screenshot_33.png" style="width: 705px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/304493iB3997555E3758D3D/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="screenshot_33.png" alt="screenshot_33.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color="#000000"&gt;If neither of those are the case, could you share your part so we could see the choices made and determine how they are producing what you are seeing? File &amp;gt; Export &amp;gt; Save to local folder. Attach the .f3d in your reply&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I believe clearance was .20 inches, and that somehow became .14 in post. I didn't modify any of the post settings.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Your post is very similar to mine. &amp;nbsp;you have the same slow retract at the threading rate, but in your example it looks like you are tapering off the threads.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;.lines n23 and n28 taper upwards from the thread depth from z -.7133 to -.7587. I want my threads to just stop as I already have a relief cut at the end.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;It's definitely feeding out, you can see it if you use View Toolpath (expand the toolpath with the triangle next to it, right-click the bottom icon with the KB size of the path, and select View Toolpath):&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Feed Out.JPG" style="width: 705px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/305943iB89FB4131C7F2559/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="Feed Out.JPG" alt="Feed Out.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I'd definitely classify this as "something that needs work" as it has the potential to scrap parts IMO.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;a href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4070831"&gt;@paul.clauss&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;can you provide some feedback on this one?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2208016"&gt;@Steinwerks&lt;/a&gt;,&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3775290"&gt;@finchmAQDUT&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thanks for bringing this one to my attention! I will show this to some other members of the team and get back to you as soon as possible - which may be early next week.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I was unable to find a setting or anything that may have been missed in the setup and received the slow retract rate as well as the inconsistent retract distance. We will be looking into this issue!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Please let me know if you have any questions!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;This may be an issue in the post that is picking up the pitch of the thread for a "general" feedrate. I'm looking into it more.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Edit: It's a software issue. update to come.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
