Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tapping machine technology, specifically a tapping lubrication device for machining centers. Background Technology
[0002] A tapping machine primarily uses a cutting tool to cut the workpiece, forming a corresponding thread shape on the workpiece surface. The cutting tool on the tapping machine rotates at high speed, simultaneously transmitting cutting force to the workpiece. Through the shearing force and pressure generated by cutting, the corresponding thread shape is formed on the workpiece surface.
[0003] During the tapping process, the tap generates high temperatures due to high operating speed and large cutting volume. High temperatures can reduce the strength of the tap, leading to tap breakage after prolonged use. Currently, some older tapping machines do not have lubrication and cooling devices, so improvements are needed. Utility Model Content
