Thread cutting, also known as thread rolling, is a machining process used to create internal or external threads in a component. In this process, the thread profile is formed directly by the cutting tool as material is removed in the form of chips. The process is widely used as it is relatively simple, precise and cost-effective. <\/p>\n\n
When cutting threads, a tap (for internal threads) or a die (for external threads) is used. The tool has several cutting edges which gradually form the desired thread profile. It is important that the pilot hole is pre-drilled correctly, as its diameter has a significant impact on the quality of the thread. <\/p>\n\n
The quality of the cut thread depends on several factors. These include the material of the component, the cutting speed, proper lubrication and the precise alignment of the tool. Adequate cooling and lubrication are particularly crucial when working with tough or hard materials in order to prevent tool wear and thread defects. <\/p>\n\n
Thread cutting is carried out both manually and by machine. Manual methods are particularly suitable for repairs, individual parts or small batches, whilst machine thread cutting ensures consistent quality and productivity in mass production. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
