Full Description

Producing internal threads is a troublesome, time-consuming process. This paper provides an overview of the fundamentals of producing internal screw threads, including case studies, new developments, and future trends. Threading information is given on tapping, high-speed tapping (up to 326 SFM), high-speed thread milling, and high-speed thrilling. Topics covered are the design characteristics of taps, full-speed taps, thread milling cutters, and thrillers and their advantages/disadvantages in producing internal screw threads. Parameters that influence tool selection, such as material to be machined, part configuration, machine selection, and production time reduction, are discussed. Case studies describe real-life threading problems and solutions. Future trends specifically covers the high-speed threading area for those planning on new CNC purchases.
