WHAT DOES ACME SCREW THREAD MEAN IN ENGLISH?

acme screw thread

Trapezoidal thread forms

Trapezoidal thread forms are screw thread profiles with trapezoidal outlines. They are the most common forms used for leadscrews. They offer high strength and ease of manufacture. They are typically found where large loads or high accuracy are required, as in a vise or the leadscrew of a lathe. Standardized variations include multiple-start threads, left-hand threads, and self-centering threads. The original trapezoidal thread form, and still probably the one most commonly encountered worldwide, is the Acme thread form. The Acme thread was developed sometime in the second half of the nineteenth century as a profile well suited to power screws that has various advantages over the square thread, which had been the form of choice until then. It is easier to cut via either single-point threading or die than the square thread is; it wears better than square; it is stronger than a comparably sized square thread; and it makes for smoother engagement of the half nuts on a lathe leadscrew than square does. The Acme thread form name appears as early as 1895.
