Abstract
A tool having only an end cutting-edge carries out a first movement of penetration into a screw blank so as to produce a groove having flanks substantially parallel to the pinion axis. The tool-holder is angularly displaced with respect to the spindle which carries the screw blank. A second movement of tool penetration takes place while the relative displacement is progressively reduced in order to obtain an inclined flank which produces a V-shaped profile. The screw is intended to form part of a compression and expansion machine and to cooperate with at least one pinion having V-form teeth.
