There are many elements to consider when threading a workpiece. When is a solid carbide thread mill better than an indexable? How does the workpiece material behavior impact thread milling?

ISO tapered threads for CNC turning are now available from meviy, the on-demand custom parts manufacturing service developed by MISUMI Group, Inc. This new capability enhances the platform's precision ...

Emuge's line of Threads-All indexable-insert thread mills is for producing internal threads on CNC machining centers. Threads-All mills have hardened CNC-ground tool-steel bodies with Weldon-style ...

Tapping internal threads on stainless steel pipe fittings is highly technical, typically done using a tap. Stainless steel is highly viscous and has poor chip-breaking properties, so it is easy to ...

The strength of some internal threads is more sensitive to tap diameter than previously thought. • Cold-formed threads are no stronger than cut threads when holes are correctly sized. • Cut threads ...

Twist drills do not make accurately sized or good finish holes; a reamer of some type is often used to cut the final size and finish. A reamer will not make the original hole; it will only enlarge a ...
