Tapping failure reasons analysis

After the first metal part be tapped, we always to check it: if pass the thread gauge inspection? The inspection result is OK, we can do mass production. If it fails, We should consider which reasons cause tapping faiulre.

Normally, the following reasons may cause screw thread faiulre:

1) UNQUALIFIED TAP

Tap is wear or bad

2) QUALIFIED DRILLING HOLE (BEFORE TAPPING)

If the hole is too small, because of friction, will increase the difficulty of tapping, while tapping faster wear, and vice versa, the hole is too big, it can easily tap into, but the quality of teeth is very poor, because the diameter of teeth will become larger, relative to the screw nut bonding force is insufficient, easy to slide teeth. In M3 *0.5, the correct hole (general iron) should be between 2.50 and 2.65, if too large, it is not easy. Obtain good quality teeth.

3) MACHINING ANGLE

The tap is not perpendicular to the workpiece.

4) TAP NOT CLEAN

The tap is not clean and the scrap of iron is clamped into it, which leads to the enlargement of teeth.

5)SCREW THREAD NOT CLEAN

The scraps or impurities in the screw thread have not been removed, which results in the unqualified inspection of the thread gauge.

6) LOSE OIL

Tap without oil, too much friction leads to thread rupture.

7) PROBLEM TAPPER

Poor tapping machine and shaking of axle result in disqualification of thread enlargement.

8) INSPECTION FREQUENCY

Inspection with screw gauge every 20 or so in the process (frequency depends on the qualified condition, if the qualified rate is high, the inspection cycle can be lengthened, otherwise it will be shortened. )

CNC MACHINE BE CLASSIFIED BY SERVO CONTROL MODE

Servo control mode to classify CNC machine tool. (1) open loop control CNC machine tool The feed servo drive of this kind of machine tool is open-loop, that is, there is no detection feedback device. Generally, its driving motor is a stepping motor. The main feature of stepping motor is that every time the control circuit changes the command pulse signal, the motor will rotate a step angle, and the motor itself has self-locking ability. The drive circuit is controlled by the pulse distributor, which controls the coordinate displacement by changing the number of pulses, the displacement speed by changing the frequency of pulses, and the direction of displacement by changing the distribution sequence of pulses. Therefore, this control mode is characterized by convenient control, simple structure and low price. The command signal flow from the CNC system is unidirectional, so there is no stability problem of the control system, but because the error of the mechanical transmission...

MEASURES TO IMPROVE THE MACHINED PARTS SURFACE QUALITY

Measures to improve the surface quality of  machined parts Improve operator skills The operator must master the technology of tool fixing and tool setting. Tool fixing and tool setting is an important and very difficult basic work in  CNC machining . The good and bad of tool loading and tool setting will directly affect the programming of machining program and the dimensional accuracy of  machining parts.  Only mastering the technology of tool setting and tool setting can guarantee the machining quality. The tool setting is generally divided into manual tool setting and automatic tool setting. At present, the vast majority of CNC machine tools use manual tool setting, and the commonly used tool setting method is trial cutting. It can get more accurate and reliable results. KYLT Stainless steel cnc turning service The simulation system of CNC lathe is used to check the program: after the program is input in the machine panel, the program must be simulated fir...
