Walter USA’s Unified National Fine (UNF) orbital thread mills are available in 2×D and 3×D models with large shank diameters promoting vibration-free machining, even with a long clamping length. The tools’ short overhang renders them particularly effective for the machining of challenging materials such as ISO-S alloys, materials of higher tensile strength and those with spring-back effect.
The combination of design features along with the advantages of thread milling as a process enable these thread mills to deliver higher process reliability and more true-to-gage threads before manual corrections are necessary, according to Walter USA. In addition, the thread mills’ ability to run with a higher chip load reduces the number of passes. This shortens cycle time and enables longer machine time without manual adjustments.
