Abstract

A method for producing a thread in a workpiece comprises the following process steps: a) producing a wall of the workpiece, wherein the wall has a number n of grooves greater than or equal to 1 encompassing a thread axis, b) introducing a corresponding thread-producing region of a thread-producing tool into each of the grooves, c) producing a thread in each subregion, adjoining the groove(s) of the wall of the workpiece by rotating the thread-producing tool about the thread axis, wherein, following rotation, each thread-producing region projects into the same groove again or into another groove in the wall, and d) moving each thread-producing region of the thread-producing tool out of the associated groove in the direction along the groove.
