VT machining provides CNC Thread Grinding Kovar for customers who need accurate, repeatable Kovar components. Because Kovar is matched thermal expansion for glass/ceramic seals, we adapt the process to suit — controlling the variables that matter for this alloy.
CNC Thread Grinding Capability for Kovar
- Pitch accuracy to grade 3
- Hardened-part threading
- Lead screws & gauges
- Fine surface finish
Why Kovar for CNC Thread Grinding
Kovar is selected for CNC Thread Grinding when a part needs the combination it offers — matched thermal expansion for glass/ceramic seals. We confirm the exact grade with you so the finished component performs as intended in service.
CNC Thread Grinding Quality & Inspection
Quality control for CNC Thread Grinding Kovar includes in-process checks and final inspection of the features you flag as critical, so the Kovar parts you receive are to print.
How CNC Thread Grinding Kovar Works
For CNC Thread Grinding Kovar, we plan the operation around the material: how Kovar responds to heat, force and finishing dictates the wheel, tool, power or etchant we choose and the rate at which we run.

Why is Kovar a good choice for CNC Thread Grinding?
Kovar is matched thermal expansion for glass/ceramic seals, which makes it well suited to CNC Thread Grinding. We tune the process to the alloy so the finished Kovar grinding part meets your dimensional and functional requirements.
Can VT machining make custom Kovar parts to my drawing?
Yes. Kovar Kovar grinding is made to order from your CAD/2D drawing. Share your geometry, material grade, tolerance and quantity and we will confirm feasibility, lead time and pricing.
What is CNC Thread Grinding Kovar and how is it done?
CNC Thread Grinding Kovar refers to thread grinding produces precise, high-finish threads on hardened parts and lead screws. Applied to Kovar — matched thermal expansion for glass/ceramic seals — VT machining produces each part to your CAD drawing, selecting parameters from your tolerance, finish and quantity requirements.
What surface finish is achievable on Kovar with CNC Thread Grinding?
Grinding can take Kovar to a fine finish — typically Ra 0.1–0.4 µm, and to a mirror grade on suitable alloys.
What tolerances can you hold for CNC Thread Grinding Kovar?
Achievable tolerances for Kovar grinding depend on the alloy, geometry and feature size. Grinding routinely holds single-micron tolerances on diameter, flatness and parallelism. Exact figures are confirmed against your drawing callouts.
