Anybody have or know where I might get
a extrude and tap forming tool?
The metal is steel .759mm (22 Gauge) CRS
and the tap is M3.00
Instead of a forming tool is there a better way?
I'm using SW2006 SP 4.1
Thanks in advance
Cheers
Frank

If you're running this in a turret press, contact the turret
manufacturer, or Wilson Tool or Mate tool. Pem inserts are a decent
alternative to a tap and form too.

Thanks for the lead but I don't think
they would have a "Solidworks forming tool"
for a extrude and tap. I'm sorry I should've
mentioned I'm looking for a Solidworks feature
which in this case is called a "forming tool"
Solidworks has a sample of an extrude in thier
design libaray under "forming tools"
Anyone make one for an M3.00 using 22 gauge CRS?
Thanks in advance
Cheers
