Electric Tapping Machine

The optimal solution for precise & time-saving work

You come from the metal or mechanical engineering industry? And are you looking for a convenient and efficient solution for thread cutting? We will help you! No matter whether you cut threads by hand, with a cordless screwdriver or a column drill – it is usually very exhausting and time-consuming. A speed tap breaks off or the thread is cut obliquely and you can start from the beginning.

Our solution: the tapping machine – also known as tapping machine or tapping arm. We have four different electrical electric tapping machines to choose from as standard. These differ, for example, in the range of the tapping arm, lubrication systems, maximum thread size and depth adjustment.


The advantages of our tapping machine
Ergonomic operation – The tapping arm is very easy and safe to position, eliminating the need to apply force for tapping.
Thread always accurate at 90° – The high manufacturing quality of the tapping machine and the tapping arm within the tapping machine ensures that your thread is always cut perpendicular to the component.
Speed – High speed and torque allow the electric tapping machine to cut threads many times faster.
No tap breaking – A slipping clutch in the tap holders, which can be adjusted very finely and quickly, ensures that your taps will not break when blind holes occur.
Countersinking and helicoils possible – You can clamp your countersinks using a drill chuck holder for the tapping machine; there are also holders for screwing in helicoils/notch cones.


Acquisition of a tapping machine

The operation of a threading machine should be as simple as possible. In the case of a current shortage of skilled workers, it is not advisable to choose a highly technical machine for simple tasks which can then only be operated by 1-2 employees throughout the company. Separate forward and reverse flow and separate speed adjustment are important. The speed for threading depends on the thread size. In addition, a simple depth adjustment or a lubrication system may also be suitable.

Handling is one of the most important points. The tapping arm should be easy to move without great resistance. This is important for large threads, because it is ergonomic and energy-saving, but even more important for small threads, because there must be no lateral forces on the cutter, because otherwise it breaks very easily.

You can buy hydraulic and electric threading machines. Mainly, however, the electric tapping machines from the manufacturer Wadjay, since these convince by quality, operability and above all first-class handling.
