Thread grinding is a precision process used to create accurate threads on hard materials, using specially dressed grinding wheels that match the thread profile. It is commonly used for producing high-precision threads in applications like ball screw mechanisms, gears, and screws. Ideal for materials difficult to machine with other methods, such as hardened steels, thread grinding provides excellent surface finishes and minimal tolerance variations, making it essential in industries like aerospace, automotive, and medical device manufacturing.

Cutting Tool :The primary component used to create the thread. Threading tools are designed with specific profiles to match the required thread type, such as a single-point tool for external or internal threads or a die for creating threaded sections.
Tool Holder: A component that holds the threading tool securely in place, ensuring proper alignment and stability during the threading process.
Workpiece: The material being machined, which will receive the thread. It can be made from various materials, including metals, plastics, and composites.
Lathe or CNC Machine : Machines commonly used for threading, with CNC machines offering higher precision and automation. The machine holds the workpiece and controls the cutting tool’s movement according to the threading specifications.
