What is Automatic Screw Machining:
It is a machining process that uses the principle of turning the part in a type of lathe and utilizing multiple cutting and forming tools (drills, milling cutters, taps, dies etc.) to shape the part.
When to use Automatic Screw Machining:
- When the part is predominately round
- When a part is threaded both internally and externally
- When a part requires drilling or step boring
- The raw material is metal or plastic
- Machining tolerances are required
- Low to high volume usage
- Parts that don?t lend themselves to Cold Heading
