The spiral cut is called a helical sweep cut in Pro/e, another language all together. The menu picks are 'Insert>Cut>Helical Sweep'. Then you pick some attributes of the sweep, such as whether the pitch will be constant and what to make the cut profile normal to. Then you create two sketches: first sketch the trajectory and an axis of rotation for the helix; then sketch the cut profile locked to the trajectory. Lastly, you'll specify a pitch and done.

halical cut have to make the boundary for the cutting area first, but spiral not need.
