Multipurpose Taps, Thread Mills and Drills



EMUGE-FRANKEN USA has introduced its MultiTOOL program, which includes versatile taps, thread mills and drills that are designed for a wide range of materials in high-mix, low volume job shop applications.

"We are pleased to offer our customers a comprehensive thread making solution with our new MultiTOOL program," said Marlon Blandon, Product Manager, Drills, Thread Milling. "As the innovator of the industry-leading MultiTAP, EMUGE-FRANKEN has expanded its successful multipurpose tool concept to also include new thread mills and drills."

The EMUGE MultiTOOL program includes the MultiTAP, MultiTHREAD MILL and MultiDRILL.

MultiTAP tapping solution ranges from cut taps to form taps in different coatings, in addition to taps with extended lengths.

"Versatile MultiTAP features an innovative geometric design and a special base material and surface treatment, which allows it to cut a wide range of materials such as carbon steel, steel alloys, stainless steel, aluminum, cast iron, copper, brass and bronze," said a company spokesperson. "The taps are uniquely designed to produce threads within 2B and 3B classes of fit, eliminating the guesswork required when calculating H-limits. MultiTAP significantly improves thread quality and boosts output, while reducing production costs."

New MultiTHREAD MILL is a general-purpose, cost-effective thread milling solution for job shops where part applications and materials frequently change. The thread mills are designed to cut a wide range of standard materials very efficiently. MultiTHREAD features a proprietary TIN T21 coating developed by EMUGE and is offered in a complete size and thread style range in either Full Form or Single Plane types. Only one tool is required for both through and blind holes, as well as for right or left-hand threads. According to the company, the thread mills enable shops to boost their production and save on costs due to reducing the number of tools needed.

MultiDRILL features high-quality solid carbide 3XD and 5XD drills for manufacturers that have limited quantity production runs or operate in a job shop environment with many materials.

"MultiDRILL is made of a sub-micro grain carbide grade that is harder than conventional carbide grades for drilling, yet it retains the ability to withstand shock and chipping," said the spokesperson. "The new drills feature advanced TIALN-T63 coating utilizing nano-layer technology with surface hardness exceeding standard TIALN-based coatings for reduced friction at high temperatures. The double margin designed drills are self-centering and feature concave cutting edges for higher chip shearing ability, providing longer tool life and productivity."
