Abstract

A machining method, for a CNC-lathe for forming a predefined thread in a work piece, includes the steps of: rotating the metal work piece around a rotational axis thereof; moving a threading tool along a longitudinal direction through a set of passes, wherein the longitudinal direction is parallel/coinciding to the rotational axis; oscillating the threading tool in a radial direction during a first pass and first frequency, the threading tool moving between a first radial distance (D1) and a second radial distance (D2), (D1) being greater than (D2); oscillating the threading tool in a radial direction during a second pass and second frequency, the threading tool moving between a third radial distance (D3) and a fourth radial distance (D4), (D3) being greater than (D4) and smaller (D1), and (D4) being smaller than (D2); and during a last pass moving the tool without oscillation in the radial direction.
