Thread Milling - Infeed mode options similar to turning

Thread Milling - Infeed mode options similar to turning

Please give us the ability to have the same three infeed modes for thread milling that are currently present in turning.  Currently both Fusion 360 and HSMWorks only support the first mode of a constant infeed.  This will significantly improve thread mill tool life.  It would be great to have that same functionality in HSMWorks as well.

 

The attached pictures show a constant .012" infeed.  The first pass barely scratches the bore.  The second pass removes almost all of the material and completes the M8 x 1.25 thread.  The first pass should be taking about 75% of the total radial depth of cut, while the second pass should be taking the remaining 25%.
