when lead of the screw is equal to the pitch it is called single threaded screw
An acme thread is the most commonly used.
the leadscrew is used for thread cutting on a lathe
This is a tool that is used to measure the pitch diameter of a screw. This tool looks like a standard micrometer except that the anvils are specially configured to reach into the screw thread groove and touch the pitch diameter of the screw thread. The screw thread micrometer does not measure any other aspect of the screw thread. It does not measure the: pitch; threads-per-inch; major diameter; minor diameter; flank angles; lead; helix angle.
The angle of a thread of a screw is an angle between the threads and it is the defining factor for the shape of the screw thread.

it is what allows the screw to grip into the material its being screwed into. a screw without a thread is a nail
The lead screw moves the turret by a precise increment for every rotation of the screw. This allows the machine to generate threads in a workpiece, to generate precise length and diameter dimensions, and to maintain a constant rate of metal removal.
acme thread
Yes, a parallel sided screw thread is in effect a worm gear.
when a spiral groove is cut over a hole, then it is nut thread. when a spiral groove is cut over a shaft, then it is screw thread.
The helix angle of a screw thread is the angle formed between the thread's helix and a plane perpendicular to the axis of the screw. It is determined by the pitch of the thread (the distance between adjacent threads) and the diameter of the screw. A larger helix angle generally indicates a coarser thread, while a smaller angle corresponds to a finer thread. This angle is crucial for understanding the screw's mechanical properties and performance in applications.
