The Punch Tap, developed in association with Audi AG, was developed to significantly reduce the cycle time associated with threading aluminum castings.
Emuge not only created a new type of tool for helical thread-forming but also a completely new technology for machining threads. The new process produces internal threads at a significantly reduced energy consumption and faster by approximately 75 percent compared to the conventional threading technology. Companies that are involved with mass production of aluminum parts are using Punch Tap to drive down production time and costs.
See this new technology in action at IMTS 2018, booth 431536.
