  • The grooves of the thread are machined while leaving the crest untouched.
  • Thread shapes conforming to the screw specifications can be machined.

Threading (The machined surface from the previous operation remains) Only specific thread specifications and pitch can be machined.

  • You can machine a thread with different pitch widths with the same insert

In order to finish a thread with the wiper edge, a finishing allowance of

  • In the process before threading, it is necessary to finish the workpiece with 0.1mm per side is required. the specified external diameter (or internal diameter) Sharp thread peaks can be round off.
  • Sharp threads are easily formed
  • About Cutting Methods We recommend modified flank infeed machining as a cutting method for SSTE type and SSTI type. With this cutting method, chip curl diameter is smaller, it is possible to stabilize chip control, and you can suppress the trailing edge damage that commonly occurs with radial infeed machining. (We recommend a 1° modified angle)
