Large components, special thread solutions, and tight tolerances – the challenges in the energy sector place the highest demands on machining. With the Energy tap, Gühring introduces an industry specialist that manufactures demanding threads reliably and economically.
Especially in the energy sector, large and costly components are used that need to be machined reliably. This presents several challenges for thread tools: The demanding production of large, load-bearing threads should be economical – at the same time, the tools used in the final step must operate absolutely reliably and securely. In the worst case, long, jamming chips during thread production can cause damage to the component's surface. If the component becomes unusable, it has expensive consequences.
Good chip removal in steel & cast materials
A case for the Energy tap: The high-performance tap was specifically developed for the requirements in the energy sector and shows its strengths in typical materials, such as high-strength steel or cast materials. The new flute profile ensures short chips and perfect thread surfaces, while the central internal cooling guarantees reliable chip transport. Additionally, the reduced thread section decreases friction and thus improves chip flow. Users need not worry about long chips that can jam, even with large threads.
20% more tool life
In addition to high process reliability, the Energy tap also shines in terms of economy: Thanks to HiPIMs coating, the tool offers high wear resistance. Compared to the competition, the tool life with the Energy tap can be increased by 20%. For perfect thread quality and outstanding tool life.
