Thread Whirling Tools

For Perfect Long Threads on Swiss Type Machines

Thread Whirling is a fast and accurate way to thread long, small diameter parts in exotic materials such as titanium, stainless steel and inconel. Whirling inserts and holders can produce a wide range of medical parts such as dental implants and bone screws, automative parts and semiconductor small parts. Cutting is the result of the whirling ring rotating eccentrically at high speed about the slowly rotating workpiece. The advancement of the workpiece rotationally and the advancement of the tool head longitudinally correspond to the thread pitch required.

CARBIDE GRADE BMA - PVD TiALN coated submicrograin for stainless steel, exotic materials.

Thread Whirling Tools

Thread Whirling Advantages

Thread Whirling offers several advantages over single point threading:
Enables production of small diameter long threads when used on Swiss type machines, the thread whirling spindle works close to the guide bushing for increased support and rigidity.

Increased Productivity:

Short maching time Thread whirling is performed in a single pass. This elimates multiple passes required for a single point threading. Thread whirling allows working at high feed rates and consequently short cycle times.

Very high surface quality and accurate geometry: Long tool life: Faster Setup:

The use of up to 8 cutting edges, higher concentricity, special cutting edge geometry and ideal chip removal, enable top quality surfaces to be produced without burr. Whirling inserts have a stronger cutting edge that single point tools, because cutter side clearance is achieved by rotating the whirling spindle, not by relieving material under the cutting edge. Thread whirling eliminates special support devices and expensive startup development costs.

Compensation of large helix angles:

Large helix angles can be compensated by adjusting the whirling unit. One toolholder can be used for various applications. All toolholders are standard stock items. Inserts are made for each application as a special item. The toolholders are designed according to different machine types and manufacturers. Special adaptors for machine heads are available as stock items.
