Tapping Holes in A36 Steel: Testing TAIPU Z33110016 Electric Tapping Arm
2023.05.08

        One concern often associated with plasma cut holes is the potential for misshaped holes or the heat-affected edge. This makes tapping plasma cut holes difficult even with a high-quality tapping machine. However, with TAIPU from DoneCNC, tapping plasma cut holes should not be a problem, provided you use a new high-quality tap (We recommend VOLKEL) and take certain precautions. For example, some people find it helpful to run a reamer through the holes first to extend the life of the tap. Z33110016 can easily accommodate this by placing the reamer into the quick-change drill chuck and using the arm as you would for tapping. Dropping the RPMs can also help to break through the hardened edge.

        If you are having issues tapping holes coming off your plasma table.  We would be happy to conduct a tap test and demonstrate the value of our electric tapping machine with us and our dealer, distributor all over the world.
