Tapping is the action of creating a thread in a piece of material, most commonly metal such as steel or aluminum. AGAM does approximately 1 million tapping cycles a year for various parts and multiple applications for its customers.

Depending on the tap, the operator will change the tapping head, with a pitch matching the tap size. After tapping is completed on the part, the machine has an automatic reverse cycle to extract the tap from the part.
These machines have a powerful motor, driving multiple heads to complete 3 taps in one cycle. Such jigging aligns the parts perfectly and warrants accurate operations.

Such jigging aligns the parts perfectly and warrants accurate operations.- Typically, AGAM will cut thousands of parts on the Laser Cutting Center. Then, on such sheets of parts, an operator will tap each individual hole cut to the proper size.
- Such arms are air-powered, and have a self-reverse mode to extract the tap from the piece.
