We believe many wire nail factories are familiar with the planetary thread rolling dies. Top-quality planetary dies for them to achieve excellent thread accuracy during their rolling operations.

Here are the details of how it was made, Let’s keep reading!

Special steels

Every thread rolling application demands different tool steels depending on the features of the part to be rolled. For this reason, the flat thread rolling dies with a wide range of steels depending on each customer’s needs.

Long Life tools

Exclusive profile design, advanced grinding technology, self-developed technology, along with in-house heat treatment and coatings allow us make the dies widely recognized for their long tool life and optimum threading performance in highly demanding threading operations.

Self-developed coatings

Thanks to the wide experience in developing coatings, specially conceived to improve wear resistance and increase the die life of flat thread rolling tools, manufacturers are able to produce special flat dies for difficult thread rolling applications such as hard to roll parts after heat treatment or hard to roll materials such as stainless steel, titanium, or Inconel. The coatings also allow you to roll larger volumes of parts, reducing machine preps and changes and minimizing machine downtime, which entails a significant reduction in manufacturing costs.

In-house guarantee

All heat treatment and coating operations are made in-house, which allows maintain a strict control of these processes, guaranteeing optimum mechanical properties of the flat dies, especially regarding hardness, wear resistance and elasticity, key factors for a reliable, stable and durable performance of our flat dies during the thread rolling process.

Planetary dies for nails

Some manufacturers are experts in the design and manufacturing of planetary dies for the production of nails. Thanks to the advanced nail threading profiles and special coatings, they produce high performance and long life planetary nail dies, guaranteeing a reliable and stable nail threading process, and minimizing quality problems and reducing manufacturing costs.

Custom made planetary dies

There are also some suppliers manufacture a wide range of customized planetary dies for all type of planetary thread rolling machines (Videx, Sakamura, Sacma-Ingramatic, Omega, Prutton, Ruja, Eagle, Seny, Izpe, etc.) and many different thread types such as metric, trapezoidal, annular, knurls, etc.
