Siemens thread repair (re-cut damaged threads) cycle

Toolmex TUR European built lathes now offers enhanced threading and thread repair cycles on its TUR-MN flat bed lathes. "Incorporating the latest Siemens 840Dsl shop turn manual operate control makes these TUR our most flexible threading lathes," said a company spokesperson. These lathes are suitable in the oil & gas industry, large toolrooms or job shops requiring a wide range and quantity of threads on pipe, bar or shafts. "TUR with Siemens shop turn manual operate package is remarkably reliable, and ease of operation makes the TUR-MN a work horse in advanced plants around the world," added the spokesperson.

TUR-MN threading and thread repair cycle lathes are available with: from 40" BC (distance between centers) up to 393" BC with spindle bores from 4.1" - 17.7" diameter. "TUR lathes integrate the latest Siemens threading cycles with TUR modular design making them more universal than other flat bed threading lathes," said the spokesperson. TUR enhanced design addresses: guarding, controls, operator access to work for set-up, improves loading and unloading, shortens the learning curve, inch - metric threads and improve part finishes since operator can reduce chatter by changing the spindle speed while in the cut.

More TUR-MN features with the Siemens shop turn manual operate:

  • Cut external threads, internal threads, taper threads and transversal (face) threads
  • Threads can be single or multiple starts
  • The tool infeed can be fixed depth, or degressive to keep the cuts cross-section constant (on progressive passes)
  • Right-hand or left-hand threads, by the direction of rotation of the spindle programmed
  • Thread infeed along one flank or alternating flanks to extend tool life
  • Variable retraction distance
  • Programmable run-in and run-out is designed to improve surface finish
  • Rough and finish cycles, programmable as separate or combined
  • Independent overhead mounted swivel control panel with dual Z & X mpg improves operator productivity
  • Clear help instructions and color graphics assists machinist to review and debug a program.
