In the field of thread processing, choosing the right thread tool is the first condition to ensure the processing quality. In view of the special properties of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) materials, the selection of tools needs to comprehensively consider its hardness, wear resistance and adaptability to the material. Generally speaking, carbide or coated tools are ideal for processing HDPE materials due to their excellent hardness and wear resistance. In addition, the geometric angle of the tool must strictly match the thread standard to avoid possible processing errors and precision problems. This requires manufacturers to have rich industry experience and deep professional knowledge in the selection and design of tools.

In the actual operation of thread processing, the reasonable setting of cutting parameters is also crucial. Cutting speed, feed speed and cutting depth are the core factors affecting the quality and efficiency of thread processing. Too fast cutting speed may lead to a significant increase in the surface roughness of the thread and accelerate the wear of the tool; while too slow cutting speed will directly affect the processing efficiency. Therefore, manufacturers need to set cutting parameters scientifically and reasonably according to specific processing conditions to ensure the stability and efficiency of the processing process. The feed speed should be coordinated with the pitch to ensure the accuracy and surface quality of the thread. With the continuous development of CNC technology, the setting of cutting parameters has become more precise and intelligent, but operators are still required to make necessary adjustments and optimizations according to actual conditions.

Cooling and lubrication are also indispensable in the thread processing process. HDPE materials will generate a lot of heat during processing, which will not only increase the wear of the tool, but also may have a negative impact on the accuracy and surface quality of the thread. Therefore, it is very important to use suitable coolant for cooling and lubrication. Coolant can effectively reduce the processing temperature and reduce tool wear, thereby improving the surface quality of the thread. When processing certain special materials or specific processing environments, such as the processing of materials that are easy to stick to the tool, lubrication with lubricating oil or special cutting oil can effectively reduce friction and extend the service life of the tool.

In addition, the clamping and tool setting of the workpiece are also important factors affecting the quality of thread processing. The stable clamping of the workpiece can avoid quality problems caused by displacement or vibration during the processing process. This requires manufacturers to use appropriate clamping methods and clamping forces when clamping the workpiece to ensure the stability of the workpiece during the entire processing process. When setting the tool, it is necessary to ensure that the center of the thread tool and the center of the workpiece are completely coincident to prevent the thread accuracy from being affected by eccentricity. This process requires manufacturers to have high-precision tool setting equipment and professional operating skills.
