The aerospace manufacturing industry demands the highest quality and precision in fastener production, requiring machines capable of handling exotic materials with unmatched strength and performance. National Machinery® LLC and Smart Machinery® Srl are setting the pace by offering state of the art smart thread rollers that can resist the high demands of aerospace manufacturing.
Smart® thread rollers are crafted from durable bed frames specifically designed to roll high-tensile screws, even after undergoing heat treatment. All models are powered by a patented application of the direct drive motor that provides full torque from zero speed along with higher energy efficiency than traditional motors. Patented servo linear motors are also used to control the introduction system, making them an ideal choice for the aerospace and automotive industries.
Equipped to work with unique materials such as titanium, waspaloy, and inconel, offering unparalleled toughness and reliability in fastener manufacturing, Smart® thread rollers also feature specialised feeding rails that integrate an induction heating unit tailored to the unique requirements of aerospace materials. This enables the machine to reach temperatures of 600°C – 800°C, providing optimal conditions for forming even the most challenging materials. As a result, the rolling process is smooth and precise, enhancing the strength and integrity of each fastener.
“At National Machinery® and Smart Machinery®, we continue to push the limits of innovation, providing our clients with the most efficient and advanced thread rolling solutions on the market,” comments National Machinery®. “Our Smart® thread rollers provide improved accuracy, minimised material loss, and enhanced productivity, making them the best choice for aerospace manufacturers. As aerospace fastener requirements change, National Machinery® and Smart Machinery® continue to provide innovative solutions that exceed and meet industry standards.”
