Basics to know about threading
Information & practical advice
Until now the technical term for threading was „thread cutting“. Due to diverse alloys in
almost all fields of applications the term “thread forming” has likewise been
established. Therefore we chose “threading” for both applications.
What to take care of at threading
Basically essential is the right selection of the tool, and with it the „geometries and coatings of
the threading tool“ and the resulting influences on its practical impact concerning the material
(from thermoplastics to carbide materials) in process.
Moreover important are depth of thread (e.g. more than 1.5 D), cutting speed and lubrication
(formula of lubricant) in order to favorably influence the smoothness of the chip flow and the
quality of the thread including accuracy to gauge.
As besides the technique, which ought to ensure optimum production results – also profitability
and the documentation of the production play a major role – we are determined to take up the
most important issues of this study and expose its complex contexts.
Subsequently we will also cover questions designed to user specifications, e.g. working with
thermoplastics and the according lubrication.
