Thread Production

0
4

Hello, I’m a design student in Hamburg. I need to produce threads of a specific size for my project. Can I request this from your company? I have no experience in thread production, and I’m unsure of how to design and request its manufacture. I’ve sent you a sketch I drew. Is it possible to produce it in this form?
Additionally, I plan to weld these threads to steel later on. I would like them to be made from a material that can be welded to steel. Is there a way to reduce production costs?
If production isn’t possible due to the design, I’d appreciate it if you could explain how the design should be altered. I’d also like to know how much the production costs would be.

Hello Seongjae Oh,

Thank you so much for your request!

We can definitely help you implement your idea. Here are a few tips:

1. Material: For welding on steel, a suitable steel material would be ideal - we can advise you on this.
2. Design: If your current design is not feasible, we would be happy to give you tips on how you can adjust it.
3. Costs: There are often ways to reduce costs by changing the design or material.

Just upload your sketch to our portal and we will check it. Afterwards you will receive feedback and an offer. If you have any questions, we are of course at your disposal!

Best regards,
Your Xometry team

        Maybe you could try this service – it allows you to create a CAD file you need for production, just from a text input. I’m not sure if it works well with a thread, but just try it: https://zoo.dev/text-to-cad
