Pipe & Tube Thread Rolling Machines

3 Roll Pipe Thread Rolling Machines for Pipes and Tubular Components

PMC pipe and tube thread rolling machines are designed for precise and efficient production of pipe threads, nipple threads, and tubular connectors used in a wide range of industrial applications.

These 3 roll pipe thread rolling machines utilize a cylindrical three-die thread rolling system that provides stable support for the pipe blank during the rolling process. The three-roll configuration ensures balanced forming pressure and consistent thread accuracy for both light-duty and heavy-duty pipe threading operations.

PMC machines are widely used for industrial pipe thread rolling and tube thread rolling production requiring reliable cold forming performance.

Flexible Through-Feed and In-Feed Thread Rolling

PMC pipe thread rolling machines are equipped with gearbox-driven die spindles and a hydraulic feed system that supports the two primary pipe thread rolling processes:

Through-Feed Thread Rolling
Continuous production of long pipes and tubes, suitable for high-volume pipe threading.

In-Feed (Plunge) Thread Rolling
Accurate thread forming for fixed-length pipe components.

Production flexibility is achieved simply by changing the thread rolling dies, allowing the machine to accommodate different pipe thread specifications.

Precision Die Control

The right-hand die spindle moves along a precision slideway and is hydraulically controlled to ensure accurate feed and retraction during pipe thread rolling operations.

Adjustable rolling pressure and die penetration allow consistent and stable thread forming.

For through-feed thread rolling, the three die spindles can be inclined up to 8° to generate the required helix angle. This adjustment ensures proper thread alignment and smooth rolling of pipe and tube components.

Heavy-Duty Machine Structure

PMC pipe thread rolling machines are built with a rigid machine structure designed for long-term industrial use.

The machine base is constructed from high-strength steel plates reinforced with internal ribs to provide excellent rigidity during pipe thread rolling operations.

Heavy-duty slideways and reinforced spindle housings reduce machine deflection and support stable rolling accuracy during continuous production.

An integrated hydraulic system allows operators to adjust rolling pressure, penetration speed, and return motion for stable and controlled machine performance.

Wide Range of Thread Types

PMC pipe thread rolling machines support a wide range of thread profiles used in pipe and tube production, including:

• V threads
• ACME and stub ACME threads
• Metric threads
• Worm threads
• Buttress threads
• Ball screw threads
• PT and NPT pipe threads
• Multi-start and special thread forms

These capabilities allow the machines to support various industrial pipe threading requirements.

Industrial Applications

PMC pipe and tube thread rolling machines are widely used for manufacturing threaded pipes and tubular components in industries such as:

• Oil and gas pipe connectors
• Automotive and motorcycle components
• Construction scaffolding systems
• Radiating and heating pipes
• General mechanical tubing components

These machines provide stable cold thread rolling performance for industrial pipe threading production.
