Threads
There are two basic requirements for Thread Turning operation. A proper tool is needed
because thread turning is a form-cutting operation. The resulting thread profile is determined
by the shape of the tool and its position relative to the workpiece. The second requirement is
that the tool must move longitudinally in a specific relationship to the rotation of the workpiece,
because this determines the lead of the thread. This requirement is met through the use of the
lead screw and the split unit, which provide positive motion of the carriage relative to the
rotation of the spindle.
