Product Overview
SourcingProChina is a China-based sourcing agent that helps international buyers source screw point cutting machines (also known as screw tail cutting machines or end milling machines) from verified manufacturers in China. This equipment uses high-speed milling cutters to shape the tail end of screws and bolts into self-tapping or self-drilling configurations, enabling fasteners to cut their own threads or pilot holes during installation.
Through our manufacturer network, we source machines with variable frequency control, automatic feeding, and high-precision indexing systems, matched to buyer specifications for standard fastener production lines or custom screw manufacturing needs.

Key Features
Variable Frequency Drive
Milling cutter and turntable speeds are both adjustable through frequency conversion, allowing operators to set cutting parameters for different screw materials and sizes.
Automatic Free Feed
The fully automatic feeding system maintains consistent material flow without manual intervention, reducing labor requirements per production line.
High-Precision Indexing
The divider mechanism positions each workpiece for consistent tail-cutting quality across production batches.
Cutter Compatibility
Supports milling cutters with outer diameters from Φ40mm to Φ80mm and inner bores of Φ16mm, covering multiple screw sizes and tail configurations within one machine series.
Processing Range
Covers M2 to M10 screws with lengths from 5mm to 450mm across the three model variants listed above.
Application Scenarios
- Self-tapping screw tail point formation
- Self-drilling screw tip processing
- Standard screw tail cutting for fastener manufacturers
- Custom screw end forming for non-standard fasteners
- Construction screw manufacturing
- Automotive fastener production lines
FAQ
Q1: What is the difference between a screw point cutting machine and a standard milling machine?
Screw point cutting machines are purpose-built for high-volume fastener tail processing, with automatic indexing, variable frequency control, and cutter configurations designed for screw tail geometries. Standard milling machines are general-purpose and require more setup changeover for repeated fastener production.
Q2: What screw sizes can these machines process?
The standard model series supports screw diameters from M2 to M10. The GW(2-5)-50 covers M2-M5 for shorter screws; the GW(3-10)-450 extends coverage up to 450mm in length for larger or longer screws.
Q3: Can the machine handle different screw head types?
Yes. The machine can process pan head, countersunk head, hex head, and other standard or custom head configurations, provided the screw shank diameter falls within the specified range.
Q4: What is the typical production capacity?
Production capacity ranges from 80 to 400 units per minute depending on model and screw specification. Smaller screws generally run at higher speeds; larger or longer screws run at reduced speeds for cutting quality.
Q5: Is the machine easy to change over for different screw sizes?
The variable frequency drive allows adjustment of cutting parameters without full mechanical rework. Tooling changeover time depends on screw diameter and length differences.
Q6: What maintenance is required for the screw point cutting machine?
Regular maintenance includes lubrication of moving parts, cutter wear inspection, cleaning of the indexing mechanism, and periodic electrical connection checks. Maintenance frequency depends on production volume and operating conditions.
Q7: How does sourcing this machine through SourcingProChina work?
SourcingProChina identifies and verifies qualified Chinese manufacturers for your required specification, coordinates quotation, factory inspection, and shipment logistics on your behalf as a sourcing agent, rather than manufacturing the equipment directly.
