How to Choose Correct Solution?
A major consideration in selecting the desired solution is the cost per unit for a part that is machined by the
tool. In spite of the fact that the tooling cost share in cost per unit is minor, the tool’s indirect influence on cost
per unit reduction can be considerable. The tool, even though it is a small part of manufacturing process, can THREAD MILLING
sometimes represent an obstacle to a machine tool running faster and cutting machining time. Therefore, tools
with the highest efficiency should be used for better productivity and, as a result, lower cost per part.
Tool selection should be considered by applying this analysis: Application -Tool
Configuration – Tool Material – Economical Consideration.

gender of thread
thread profile/ thread standard / pitch or tpi
depth of thread
machining diameter
coolant
tool adaptor
Tool Configuration
