5. Tapping Torque
Intro
Calculation for Tapping Torque of Roll Taps
SP It is hard to calculate the tapping torque for roll taps because they contain more complicated factor than the cutting taps.
According to our experience, the tapping torque of roll taps is twice or three times larger than that of the cutting taps in general.
Major factors increasing or decreasing the tapping torque of roll taps are :
SL (1) Mechanical characteristic of workpiece (Tensile strength, hardness, spring back feature, work hardening index). As the tensile strength
gets larger, the threading torque becomes larger.
(2) Size and length of bored hole: bored hole size is usually defined to obtain 75% thread height of basic thread profile (thread engagement).
Roll taps may be shuttered due to the excessive tapping torque when the bored hole size is made smaller to obtain higher thread height.
Tapping torque gets larger as the efficient length of internal screw becomes longer because there is an increase in friction coefficient
PO caused by spring back of workpiece material.
(3) Tapping process (tapping speed, lubricant, and rigidity of main spindle).
(4) Surface treatment of taps (oxidizing, nitriding, TiN, and TiCN coatings).
