Consolidating Complex Thread Production: Boosting First-Pass Yield with SINUMERIK
SINUMERIK Operate reduces manual setup time and eliminates errors by consolidating diverse thread types—from self-locking trapezoidal for forklifts to safety-critical left-hand threads for gas cylinders—into a single, automated cycle. This system automatically generates DIN-compliant parameters from simple diameter and pitch inputs, directly improving first-pass yield and throughput for specialized manufacturing.
“We see this as a direct path to reducing operational costs by minimizing rework and increasing machine utilization. Automating parameter generation can cut setup time by 15-25% in complex machining operations, directly impacting throughput and first-pass yield.”

"Cinomeric Operate è in grado di realizzarlo in un solo ciclo. La filettatura con scarico è predefinita in Sinomeric Operate. È sufficiente immettere il diametro e il passo della filettatura. Così si hanno i parametri necessari secondo le specifiche DIN per generare le dimensioni corrette dello scarico per la filettatura in questione."
