  • TOOLING ASSEMBLIES FOR LATHE MACHINES, CNC THREADING LATHES, AND METHODS OF MILLING THREADS IN TUBULAR WORKPIECES
    Publication number: 20230241688
    Abstract: A tooling assembly for a lathe machine includes a tool platform configured to be mounted on the lathe machine, a milling tool holder fixedly secured to the tool platform and workable to releasably secure a thread milling tool therein, and a milling tool drive. The milling tool drive is operatively connected to the milling tool holder and operable to rotate the milling tool holder independently of a work holder to mill threads on the workpiece when a pipe thread milling tool is secured in the milling tool holder. Computer numerical control threading lathes and methods of milling threads in tubular workpieces are also described.
