Trapezoidal thread

1. Trapezoidal thread size
Calculation: (According to the basic size calculation publicity table)






Tooth height on one side: h3=0.5p+ac=0.5×6+0.5=3.5mm
The trapezoid thread is placed to the minor diameter: d3=d—2h3=36—2×3.5=29mm
Tooth crest width: f=f'=0.366×P=0.366×6=2.196≈2.2
Alveolar base width (sharpening width): W=W'=0.366×P—0.536×ac=1.928≈1.93mm
Therefore, the width of the sword is set to 2mm, (a few threads larger than 1.93 because of wear)
 
 
If the material is hard, such as steel parts, two knives are usually used;
1. ①The first tool is a rough turning tool, (knife sharpening roughly) normal tool setting, the key is to leave a margin for the fine turning tool to repair
②The second tool is a fine turning tool, (the tool must be ground accurately, 0.1 is too large, because it is worn, and it can only be adjusted to size, it has a "ac" gap range margin), normal tool setting (position Z0) ), the key is to set the "Z" direction offset (-0.15~-0.2mm) in the wear bar at the same time, so that both sides of the knife can be polished during finishing.
 
2. ①For those with higher requirements, use G92 to follow to the size
②Higher attention is required. One is to divide the rough and fine turning, and pay attention to the trimming allowance. For example, leave a margin of 0.1 for the outside of the car and the inside of the boring. After the trapezoidal thread is placed to the size, (because of burrs) Use a turning tool or a boring tool to move it to the size, and finally use a trapezoidal thread cutter to trim it again, so that after the trapezoidal thread is placed, it will feel better and look better.

2 Trapezoidal thread turning process analysis
    There are many types of machining trapezoidal threads: straight approach, oblique approach, left-right cutting, turning straight grooves, layered methods, and so on. Compared with triangular threads, trapezoidal threads have larger pitch and tooth profile, high precision, and smaller surface roughness values ​​on both sides of the tooth profile, which results in deep cutting, faster cutting and large cutting margins when turning trapezoidal threads. Great cutting resistance. Using the macro program for layered cutting can solve the problems well.
    The "layered method" turning trapezoidal thread is actually a comprehensive application of the straight forward method and the left and right cutting method. When turning a trapezoidal thread with a large pitch, the "layered method" usually does not cut the trapezoidal groove at one time, but divides the groove into several layers, and the depth of each layer is determined according to the actual situation. Transform into several shallow trapezoidal grooves for cutting, which can reduce the difficulty of turning. The cutting of each layer adopts the method of turning left and right alternately. The amount of the back tool is very small. The tool only needs to cut along the left and right profile lines. The trapezoidal thread cutter always has only one side edge to participate in the cutting (Figure 2), so that the chip removal is compared. Smoothly, the force and heating of the tool tip have been improved, so higher quality trapezoidal threads can be machined, which is easy to master, short and easy to operate.

1. Trapezoidal thread size
Calculation: (According to the basic size calculation publicity table)
Tooth height on one side: h3=0.5p+ac=0.5×6+0.5=3.5mm
The trapezoid thread is placed to the minor diameter: d3=d—2h3=36—2×3.5=29mm
Tooth crest width: f=f'=0.366×P=0.366×6=2.196≈2.2
Alveolar base width (sharpening width): W=W'=0.366×P—0.536×ac=1.928≈1.93mm
Therefore, the width of the sword is set to 2mm, (a few threads larger than 1.93 because of wear)

It is necessary to divide rough and fine turning, and pay attention to the trimming allowance, such as leaving a margin of 0.1 outside the turning and boring.

Note: ①Compare the two macro programs: the difference between the axis and the hole (bold red)
②S300 is not fast when finishing with 45 steel
③There is a reputation phenomenon during trial processing, such as the thread length is 30mm; when the thread is about 25mm long and the tail is retracted; it still moves 4~5mm in the negative Z direction before returning to the positioning point. For some reason, it is puzzled. At present, the processing can only be solved by lengthening the undercut width.
