Knowledge Dry Goods | Absolute Classic! Empirical Algorithm For The Diameter Of Threaded Bottom Hole

Determination of diameter and depth of bottom hole before tapping and chamfering of orifice


(1) In the process of tapping, the cutting edge is mainly used to cut metal, but it also has the function of extruding metal, so the metal bulges and flows to the tooth tip. Therefore, before tapping, the drilled hole diameter (i.e. bottom hole) should be greater than the inner diameter of the thread.


The diameter of the bottom hole can be calculated according to the manual or the following empirical formula:


Brittle materials (cast iron, bronze, etc.): drill diameter d0 = D (outer diameter of thread) - 1.1p (pitch)


Plastic material (steel, copper, etc.): drill diameter d0 = D (outer diameter of thread) - P (pitch)


(2) When tapping the thread of blind hole, the depth of the hole should be greater than the length of the thread because the tap can not tap to the end.


The depth of blind hole can be calculated according to the following formula:


Depth of hole = depth of required thread + 0.7d


The diameter of common thread bottom hole can be simply calculated according to the following formula


The size to be tapped is multiplied by 0.85


For example: m3 -- 2.4mm


M4--3.1mm


M5--4.2m


M6--5.1mm


M8--6.8mm


Calculation method of metric thread:


Bottom diameter = major diameter - 1.0825 * pitch


Calculation method of inch screw thread:


Bottom diameter = major diameter - 1.28 * pitch


Brittle material drilling diameter d = D (thread diameter) - 1.1p (pitch)


Drilling diameter of plastic material d = D (outer diameter of thread) - P (pitch)


In addition to the above empirical formula, the tolerance class of thread should also be considered

Calculation of turning teeth


Calculation formula of considering conditions


The number of threads per inch of conversion between metric teeth and English teeth n = 25.4/pitch p


Pitch P = 25.4 / threads per inch n


Because the rotational speed determined by the workpiece material and the tool n = (1000 cycle speed V) / (pi * diameter d)


Because the machine structure determines the speed


Influence of rapid movement of cutterbed on maximum rotation speed of turning teeth n = 4000 / P


The influence of acceleration and deceleration on the rapid movement of cutterbed


Calculation of undercut point and undercut point


Minimum cutting distance L1 (calculation of incomplete teeth)


L1 = (pitch P) * (spindle speed s) / 500


Maximum distance of tool retraction L2


L2 = (pitch P) * (spindle speed s) / 2000


Tooth depth and root diameter D tooth depth h = 0.6495 * P


D = nominal diameter D - 2 * h


Example: Turning external teeth 3 / 4 "- 10unc 20mm long


Conversion pitch between metric and English teeth P = 25.4 / (inch thread number n)


P = 25.4 / 10 = 2.54mm


Because the rotational speed determined by the workpiece material and tool, the outer diameter d = 3 / 4 inch = 25.4 * (3 / 4) = 19.05mm


Speed n = (1000 cycle speed V) / (PI p * diameter d)


N = 1000V / pD = 1000 * 120 / (3.1416*19.05)


=2005 RPM (RPM)


Because the machine structure determines the speed


Influence of rapid movement of cutterbed on maximum rotation speed of turning teeth n = 4000 / P


N = 4000/2.54 = 1575 rpm


The rotational speed determined by the combination of workpiece material, cutting tool and mechanical structure is n = 1575 rpm and N = 2005 rpm


The lower one is 1575 rpm


The influence of acceleration and deceleration on the rapid movement of cutterbed


Calculation of undercut point and undercut point


Minimum cutting distance L1 (calculation of incomplete teeth)


L1 = (pitch P) * (spindle speed s) / 500


L1 = 2.54*1575/500=8.00mm


Minimum distance of tool return L2


L2 = (pitch P) * (spindle speed s) / 2000


L2 = 2.54*1575/2000=2.00mm


Tooth depth and root diameter D tooth depth diameter d = nominal outer diameter D-2 * H = 19.05-2 * 1.65 = 15.75mm
