When you get the thread pitch wrong on a tapped hole, a bolt or a fastener simply won’t thread in cleanly, no matter how straight the hole is. A pitch control tapping machine solves this by letting you set the exact thread pitch on the machine itself, so the feed rate matches the tap perfectly through every single cycle, instead of relying on the operator’s feel for the job.
AXIOS Machines‘ SD Series includes this pitch control feature as standard, giving operators consistent thread quality without needing constant supervision during the tapping cycle. Many shops also use this machine as a benchtop tapping machine, since it fits neatly onto a standard work table without needing a large dedicated floor footprint. We are recognised among reliable pitch control tapping machine manufacturers in India for building this kind of accuracy into an affordable, space-saving machine.
On a basic drill press tapping machine setup, the operator has to control this feed manually, which works for occasional jobs but becomes unreliable once thread depth or batch size increases. AXIOS builds pitch control directly into its servo-driven machines, with capacity ratings tied to exact pitch values, for example, M33 threads at 3.5mm pitch or M16 threads at 2mm pitch, so the machine’s speed and feed stay locked to the correct ratio automatically.
We let you set thread pitch, tapping depth, feed speed, and rollback speed directly on the Pro-face Schneider touchscreen, so the machine feeds the tap at exactly the right rate for the thread you’re cutting. This removes the trial-and-error that comes with manual feed adjustment, and keeps thread quality identical from the first part to the last.
As one of the reliable pitch control tapping machine suppliers in India, AXIOS builds this pitch-setting control into every servo-driven unit, backed by a Mitsubishi PLC that holds those parameters accurately even during long production runs.
