3D printing - threads and screws

First things first: what is the difference between a screw and a thread?

A screw is a fastener used to form a connection that can later be dismantled, while the thread is the main fastener of the screw. In this case, the thread is not only used for screws; they are also present on pipes, in linear drives, worm gears and many other devices.

All threads have in common the way they are formed. Each thread is a continuous spiral groove of a certain cross section, made on the outer or inner side of the cylindrical surface. nine0006

In most cases, the cross-section or shape is triangular or trapezoidal. Triangular thread forms are primarily used for fasteners (screws), while trapezoidal thread forms, varieties of square threads, are used for power transmission and linear drives on lead screws. To keep things simple, this article only covers triangular shaped threads, but everything applies to both types.

A further level of categorization distinguishes metric threads from inch threads. The former are mainly used in Europe and Asia, while the latter are used in America and the UK. To the untrained eye, they look the same, but the difference exists in the shape of the triangle and the pitch of the spiral curve. nine0006

In this article, we will cover the basics of designing and 3D printing screws and threads.

Basic terms

There are a few terms and concepts that you should be familiar with before you start designing a thread.

External or internal thread : External or external thread exits the cylindrical surface. The female thread is cut on the inner cylindrical surface. For example, bolts have external threads, while nuts have internal threads. nine0006

Thread axis : line through the center of the cylinder on which the thread is to be formed.

Base : the bottom of the groove that runs around the body of the thread.

Comb : The highest point of the thread profile.

Large Diameter : The diameter of a cylinder encircling the top of an external thread or the base of an internal thread. This cylinder is concentric with the axis of the thread.

Minor Diameter : The diameter of a cylinder enclosing the root of a thread on an external thread or the crest of an internal thread. This cylinder is concentric to the thread axis and large diameter. The smaller diameter is also known as the drill diameter when handling internal threads. nine0006

Pitch : distance between equivalent points on adjacent threads. For example, the distance between two adjacent crests of a triangular thread.

Metric: The "M" designation for metric threads indicates the nominal outside diameter of the thread in millimeters. For example, an M5 thread has a nominal outer diameter of 5 mm. For external threads, the nominal outside diameter is equivalent to the major diameter. For internal threads, the nominal outside diameter can be determined by measuring the minor diameter and referring to the metric thread table. nine0006

Inch threads: Inch threads are designated using a number of standards, including the Unified Thread Standard (UTS), which basically refers to standard thread sizes as numbers (eg #4). The two most important measurements in UTS are the major or minor diameter of external or internal threads, respectively, and threads per inch (TPI).

Thread Modeling

Let's look at the process of designing external and internal threads using Fusion 360, which provides a simplified threading feature. nine0006

Other CAD programs have tools with varying degrees of similarity. It is important to understand the basics presented in the previous section. With this knowledge, you will be able to use any available modeling tool for 3D modeling.

Let's start with the outer thread of the bolt.

External thread

- Draw a circle with a diameter equal to the largest diameter of the desired thread.

- Create a cylinder by extruding a circle to the desired thread length.

- Go to "Create" and select the "Thread" option. nine0006

- Select the newly created cylinder. Make sure "Modeled" is checked. Set the thread type and other thread options. Click OK.

That's it. You have an external thread! To make a good bolt out of it, you need to attach it to the head to your liking.

Now let's create a nut with an internal thread.

Internal thread

- Create a hexagon. For the purposes of this tutorial, just make sure it's larger than the carving you want to create. nine0006

- Push it out to the desired height.

- Make a hole in the center by selecting the "Hole" option from the "Create" menu. The hole diameter must match the largest thread diameter.

- Select the inner face of the newly created hole, go to "Create" and select the "Thread" option.

- Don't forget to check the "Modeled" option. Set the thread size and other parameters. Click OK.

That's it. Your first carvings are ready for 3D printing! nine0006

Tips for 3D Printing Threaded Parts

This may seem like a simple task at first glance, but printing threads is not always easy, especially if you need small diameters.

Assume you are using a 0.4 mm nozzle and a 0.2 mm layer height. With this setting, the smallest pitch you can achieve during 3D printing is likely to be around 0.5mm (give or take 0.1mm). This pitch is suitable for M3 threads and you should have no problem trying to print an internal thread on a relatively large part. This is because your threads will have enough time to cool while the nozzle is in a different location. nine0006

Things get interesting if you need an external thread, for example on a screw or bolt. In this case, the nozzle has nowhere else to go, which means that you will probably need additional cooling. Check your 3D printer before you decide to print a lot of thin external threads.

One of the most practical options before starting thread printing is the M10 3D Printed Thread Test. Thanks to this special 3D model, you will be able to check exactly what your 3D printer is capable of. nine0006

Settings when 3D printing parts with threads

Below are some general guidelines for setting up your 3D printer when printing threads.

- Make sure your 3D printer is properly calibrated. Extruder calibration is also important.

- Always try to print threads vertically. For best results, the thread axes should be perpendicular to your 3D printer table.

- Print without calipers, or at least make sure they don't go inside threads. Otherwise, removing them and maintaining functionality can be a real problem, especially with internal threads. nine0006

- If possible, use at least 4 vertical layers or vertical walls at least 2 mm thick. This will ensure the strength of the thread.

- Try to set the filling density to at least 25%.

- Layer height is an important parameter when 3D printing threads. For smooth operation, the layers should be as thin as possible. As a guideline, threads larger than M12 or 1/2" can be successfully printed at 0.2mm, while smaller threads should be printed at thinner layers. nine0006

Resume

Even if your first test fails, don't despair! Here are some final tips for 3D printing threads:

- Even if you manage to print beautiful external threads smaller than M6 (6mm in diameter), think twice before using it for heavy duty use. Due to the small diameter and the nature of 3D printing, this thread size is best suited for visual models only.
