Special thread
Whether special thread depths, customised shape or special dimensions: We manufacture special threads that are precisely customised to your application. We also reliably realise unusual pitches.
Special threads from Kammerer optimally fulfil your technical requirements and make your processes efficient.
With innovative production techniques and over 85 years of experience, we guarantee you thread technology at the highest level.
What is the difference between special threads and regular threads?
Special threads are customised thread connections for specific requirements. They are used where standard threads reach their limits. Unlike regular threads, they are not manufactured according to fixed standards, as they have to fulfil special technical conditions. For example, in terms of shape, size, material or area of application.
In contrast to standard threads, special threads are therefore always customised. Kammerer offers a wide range of special threads. Depending on your requirements, we can manufacture asymmetrical or multi-start special profiles for you.
Examples of special threads
Special threads occur in a wide variety of areas and forms. Here are a few examples:
- Trapezoidal threads with a special profile shape. They ensure a high degree of efficiency in drive systems.
- Fine threads for applications that require precise adjustability and high axial load capacity.
- Multi-start threads with customised thread depth. These forms combine stability and function in an ideal way. They enable faster feed movements and increase efficiency.
- Threaded spindles in precision drives. They enable complex motion transmissions in technical systems.
- Steep threads. This special form is designed to generate maximum axial movements with a minimum radial movement. They are particularly suitable for applications where a large distance needs to be travelled with minimal force.
Special threads in precision conveyor technology
Special threads play an important role in precision conveyor systems such as screw conveyors, modular screws and dosing screws. Material transport and dosing pose particular challenges here. Factors such as friction, wear and temperature resistance are even more relevant here than in many other systems.
Special threads from Kammerer: Your advantages
- Customised solutions: Every special thread is manufactured in close cooperation with you exactly according to your specifications. We take into account the profile, pitch, material and surface treatment. The result is a product that fulfils the highest standards of load-bearing capacity, temperature resistance and durability.
- Versatile thread profiles: The selection of thread profiles includes trapezoidal, round, sawtooth and rectangular threads, which are suitable for a variety of applications. Asymmetrical or specially developed profiles are also possible.
- High-quality materials: We use a variety of materials to adapt to special conditions. These include high-strength, crack-free stainless steel and special alloys for extreme loads or corrosive environments.
- Optimised surfaces: Special coatings and surface treatments can be used to specifically improve the corrosion resistance, wear resistance and friction coefficients of the special threads. This guarantees maximum efficiency and durability.
Precise production for demanding applications
Depending on the application, we manufacture asymmetrical or multi-start profiles in order to fulfil special load directions or movement requirements. We rely on state-of-the-art CNC technology and the strictest quality controls. In this way, we ensure that every design fulfils your requirements.
The test methods used include:
- 3D measurements to ensure maximum accuracy for complex thread profiles.
- Surface analyses to optimise friction and wear properties.
- Pitch tests for precise motion transmission.
Certified sustainability
Our EMAS-certified environmental management system stands for resource-conserving processes and environmentally friendly production. We rely on state-of-the-art technologies and optimised production steps to reduce energy consumption and minimise waste.
However, our sustainable production does not mean compromising on quality. Quite the opposite! The production of every special thread is subject to strict quality controls. This is how we combine ecological responsibility with technical excellence. Kammerer guarantees durable, high-performance products. They not only fulfil their tasks, but also make an active contribution to environmental protection.
The areas of application of our special threads
Our special threads are used in a wide variety of industries. These include, among others …
- Medical technology: Special threads for medical devices and implants with special requirements for accuracy and hygiene.
- Automotive industry: customised products for precise controls and drive systems in vehicle components.
- Mechanical engineering: Thread solutions that have to withstand extreme loads and high torques. For example in machine tools.
- Aerospace: Threaded parts that function reliably under extreme conditions and offer high strength with low weight.
