Thread whirling is a fast and accurate way to thread long, slender components in difficult-to-machine materials. By combining the speed of thread whirling with the rigidity of a sliding head machine, complete threads are produced accurately in a single pass, without the need for special supports.
CoroMill 325 thread whirling inserts and holders can produce a wide range of high precision screws and implants from rough stock at high speeds and fit a large number of sliding head machine types. For many manufacturers, this can eliminate the need for a dedicated thread whirling machine.
Thread whirling provides a number of advantages over traditional single-point threading, including increased productivity, faster set up times, no extra costs for finishing treatment, superior chip control and increased tool life over conventional tools
