Thread Cutting

Automating Thread Cutting with a Cobot
Precise and Repeatable Thread Machining

What is automated thread cutting?

In automated thread cutting, a robot or cobot handles the positioning and guidance of the tool.

The machine automatically moves to each machining position and performs the thread-cutting process according to the defined procedures.

Why Automate Gripping Processes?

Manual thread cutting can be time-consuming, especially when there are many repetitive drilling operations. At the same time, precise positioning and repeatable machining are important.

 

Typical challenges include:

  • many repetitive processing steps
  • significant amount of manual work
  • Precise positioning is required
  • monotonous tasks
  • varying components and thread positions

 

Automation can standardize the process and reduce the workload on employees when it comes to repetitive tasks.

How does thread cutting work with a cobot?

The cobot automatically moves the tool to the designated machining position and performs the thread-cutting process there.

 

Position → Set Tool → Cut Thread → Move to Next Position

 

Multiple positions can be machined one after another. For new workpieces, the corresponding machining positions can be adjusted.

What are the advantages of using a cobot for thread cutting?

Precise Positioning
Machining positions are approached in a reproducible manner.

Consistent Processes
Defined procedures help ensure consistent processing.

Take the Pressure Off Employees
Recurring tasks are automated.

Flexible Processing
Different components and thread positions can be accommodated.

Less manual work
Multiple threads can be machined automatically, one after another.

Efficient Production
The thread-cutting process can be integrated into automated manufacturing processes.

Is your thread-cutting process suitable for a cobot?

The workpiece, thread size, number and position of the threads, and the production sequence all determine how the process can be automated.

We'll work with you to determine how your application can be effectively implemented using a cobot.
