'swaged'?

Think of two opposing metal slabs the size of a few bricks that are pure hardened steel. One is stationary, the other moves but with a bolt at the top of a downward slope. As the moving one flies down the bolt is essentially pressed with the threads. So I guess they're ground in, but it is really a rolling process, a very fast one at that. Basically. Stupidly loud...

I have a video of it but it's in quicktime format and is propietary info. :|
