Thread insert installation capability for titanium components
What is Thread insert installation?
Thread insert installation capability for titanium components
Fastener manufacturing capability for Thread insert installation, with cold forming, thread rolling, and 100% dimensional inspection.
Engineering Parameters & Capabilities
Thread rolling cold-forms threads by displacing material between two reciprocating or rotary dies, rather than cutting it away. Compressive residual stress at the thread root increases fatigue strength by 30–50% compared to cut threads, specifically for titanium components. Precision titanium components present unique challenges: balancing dimensional accuracy with cost per part. Process selection (mill vs. turn vs. EDM vs. laser) is optimized for each feature.
| Parameter | Primary Method | Alternative Method |
|---|---|---|
| Method | Cold-forming: material displaced, not removed | Thread cutting / milling |
| Fatigue Strength | 30–50% higher than cut threads | Standard (notch-sensitive) |
| Surface Finish | Ra 0.4–0.8 µm; work-hardened | Ra 1.6–3.2 µm |
