METHODS FOR IMPROVING THE EFFICIENCY OF THE TANGENTIAL-FEED THREAD ROLLING PROCESS
Abstract
Threaded joints are widely used in mechanical engineering, oil and gas, power engineering, aerospace, and automotive industries. Their reliability and service life largely depend on thread manufacturing quality. Therefore, improving dimensional accuracy, surface quality, and mechanical strength remains an important task in modern manufacturing. Threads are produced by cutting, milling, grinding, and plastic deformation. Thread rolling is increasingly used because it forms the profile without chip removal, preserving and orienting the metal fibrous structure along the thread. This can improve fatigue strength, wear resistance, and load-bearing capacity. The main thread-rolling methods are radial-feed and tangential-feed. In tangential rolling, the rollers gradually engage the workpiece, producing progressive plastic deformation. This reduces impact loading, promotes more uniform contact - pressure distribution, and can increase tool life. The method is particularly effective for large-diameter shafts, long threads, and high-strength materials.Author Biography
