Thread rolling |
|
| Cold rolled thread forming is a common process for producing quality threads. On "rolling" threads are produced without cutting action by rotationally symmetric profiles. | |
| Advantages of thread rolling | |
| - Fiber course: | The fiber course is optimal. It continues along the outer contour of the thread and for this reason it reduces the notch effect significantly. This causes an increase of the fatigue strength of up to 50 %. |
| - Surface: | Rolled threads have surfaces without discoloration. |
| - Work hardening: | The work hardening causes an enormous strength augmentation. |
| - Saving of material: | Compared to metal-cutting manufacturing of threads you can economize up to 20 % of material by applying thread rolling. |
| - Processing time: | On thread rolling processing time is lower than on metal-cutting manufacturing of threads. |
| - Cost saving: | Particularly with regard to large quantities thread rolling is very cost-effective. |
