Common Problem Analysis &Solution of thread milling

(1) Accelerated wearing or excessive wearing of thread milling cutter

① Cause: cutting speed and feed selection is incorrect.

Solution: Ensure that the correct cutting speed and feed are selected from the machining parameter list.

② Cause: the cutting tools are overloaded

Solution: reduce the feed per tooth; Shorten tool change time interval; Check the tool for excessive wearing – the starting thread will wear the fastest.

③ Cause: the selection of the coating is not correct, resulting in chip tumors.

Solution: Study the applicability of other coatings; Increase coolant flow rate and flow rate.

④ Cause: the spindle speed is too high.

Solution: Reduce the spindle speed.

(2) Cutting edge tipping

① Cause: cutting speed and feed selection is incorrect.

Solution: Make sure to select the correct cutting speed and feed from the machining parameter list.

② Cause: the thread milling cutter moves or slips on its clamping device.

Solution: Hydraulic chuck.

③ Cause : machining machine rigidity is insufficient.

Solution: to determine the workpiece clamping reliable; If necessary, re-clamp the workpiece or improve clamping stability.

(4) Cause: insufficient coolant pressure or flow.

Solution: increase the coolant flow rate and flow.

(3) Steps on the thread tooth

① Cause: the feed rate is too high.

Solution: Reduce the feed per tooth.

② Cause: the machining programming of slope milling uses axial movement.

Solution: Ensure that the thread milling cutter in the large diameter of the thread milling out the tooth curve, without radial movement.

③ Cause: excessive wear of thread milling cutter.

Solution: Shorten the time interval of tool change.

(4) Cause: the tool processing part and the clamping part are too far apart.

Solution: shorten the overhang of the tool on the clamping device as far as possible.

(4) Machining difference workpiece to workpiece

①Cause : the tool processing part and the clamping part are too far apart.

Solution: shorten the overhang of the tool on the clamping device as far as possible.

② Reason: the selection of the coating is not correct, resulting in chip tumors.

Solution: Study the applicability of other coatings; Increase coolant flow rate and flow rate.

③ Cause: excessive wear of thread milling cutter.

Solution: Shorten the time interval of tool change.

④ Reason: the workpiece shifts on the fixture.

Solution: to determine the workpiece clamping reliable; If necessary, re-clamp the workpiece or improve clamping stability.
