There are many advantages of thread milling.
To make it the better choice for machining includeS the following technical tips:
- When machining, if the mill gets broken. The broken thread mill would not get stuck in the part. Thread milling is often adopted for expensive components and late stage of machining. So, the workpiece can be safer.
- The teeth of thread mills are larger and stronger than taps because of the reduced need for chip clearance.
- Thread Milling is better for hardened materials machining because you can process in smaller steps, and speeds and feeds can span a wider range, which is limited by the pitch of the thread being tapped.
