Yes and No...
I have cleaned/opened up ID acme threads using the OD threads of an acme screw.
I used a bridgeport, and cut slots down the Acme screw (about 2-3 inches). This acts like a tap...
I don't recommend doing it this way cause your major and minor of your thread will be incorrect, your delrin acme nut will be tight on the screw... but I guess it works in a pinch...
(Acme threads are pretty easy, I do them almost every day) :-) |
