Metal tapping

Tapping is a process used to create threads, or spiral grooves, inside a metal material. This cold working technique is employed in various industrial sectors and is highly advantageous for mass production, producing pieces with standard or custom threads.

Sheet metal tapping process

Threading by mould is achieved through rolling, using either a mechanical or electronic system mounted on the mould. This process works simultaneously with blanking and bending phases, producing a finished piece with each machine stroke.

Metals suitable for tapping

MP works with various metals suitable for tapping, which naturally possess the ideal characteristics for the process: stainless steel, phosphor bronze, iron, aluminium, titanium, and brass.
