LMT-Fette Offers Tangential Thread Rolling Head

LMT-Fette has introduced the Tangential Thread Rolling Heads. These heads come pre-synchronized for more efficient set-up with no roll timing. "Because symmetrical roller repositioning is performed with a central setting screw, and away from the rolling system, operators can expect a 75% reduction in setup time. The 10 minute setup time applies to the initial setup and any time the thread rolls are changed out," a spokesperson stated.

For improved versatility, LMT-Fette has decreased the length of their rolling heads by 20%. This engineering move makes the Tangential Thread Rolling Head suitable for use in CNC lathes, as well as screw machines, according to the company. Also available in T120F, T160F, T220F and T350F models, the Tangential Thread Rolling Head can accommodate thread diameters ranging from 5/64" - 2". All models allow for adjustment from coarse to fine and now extra fine pitch threads. Tangential Thread Rolling Heads are also capable of threading 1/16" - 1" diameter NPT and NPTF pipe sizes.

LMT-Fette Tangential Thread Rolling Heads feature carbide shafts designed for increased stability, precision and tool life.
