Extended product line of AXIAL thread rolling systems HELIX
Die Styrian carbide and tool specialist Boehlerit has already agreed a successful global sales cooperation (except Germany) for thread rolling systems with Wagner Tooling Systems Baublies GmbH in 2024. Thread rolling is an innovative technology for the production of threads by cold forming, in which the material is plastically deformed under high pressure. This process enables the production of threads with high strength and precision without interrupting the grain of the metal.
Wagner's rolling systems are known for producing threads with high surface quality, tensile strength and load-bearing capacity and are available in various designs. The HELIX and RS axial rolling systems and the tangential rolling systems each offer specific advantages for different applications: The HELIX systems are compact and have large roller diameters, while the RS systems impress with interchangeable roller holders. The tangential rolling systems enable the efficient production of threads even behind a collar and can be used in the tightest of spaces.
Thread rolling is the fastest way to produce threads and leads to impressive time savings.
Customised solutions are also offered to achieve optimum results in thread production. The systems are available in various sizes and are ideal for workpieces from M1.6 to MF75 mm.
Efficiency, flexibility and durability combined
With the expansion of the HELIX axial thread rolling systems to three sizes and different variants, Wagner Tooling Systems guarantees the production of threads in the diameter range from M6 to M22 or from 1/4‘ to 7/8’.
The new HELIX systems are particularly impressive due to their flexibility and process reliability. They can be easily integrated into existing systems without the need for additional investment thanks to their compatibility with all mounting shanks. With the HELIX clamping device, the clamping process is shifted from process time to non-process time. This increases the efficiency of the overall process and leads to even faster production. In addition, the flange-shaft interface ensures reliable torque transmission and high concentricity, which increases the reliability of the overall process. Another advantage of the HELIX systems lies in their handling. The simple assembly and defined installation position facilitate use and ensure high reproducibility - a decisive factor for companies that prioritise efficiency and quality.
Furthermore, the DLC coating offers additional wear protection and significantly extends the service life of the components. This ensures maximum wear protection for tribologically highly stressed components such as front and base plates, spring housings and flanges. With this expansion, Boehlerit and Wagner Tooling Systems Baublies GmbH are emphasising their commitment to advanced solutions that increase both productivity and cost-effectiveness for customers. The expansion of the HELIX axial thread rolling systems is a further step towards more efficient and sustainable production.
