Process OverviewWhat are Threads & Inserts?
Threading and insert installation operations are used to create removable mechanical connections in industrial components. Threads can be produced directly on the part through tapping, thread milling, or turning, while metal inserts allow reinforcement or creation of stronger threads in soft materials or components subject to repeated assembly.
These processes are widely used in CNC machined parts, electronic components, medical devices, industrial products, tooling, and mechanical assemblies where reliable, repeatable fastening is required.
Common solutions include metric and imperial threads, helicoils, Keenserts, heat-set inserts for plastics, press-fit inserts, and threaded reinforcement systems used in structural and precision applications.
