Acme Threads

The only real difference is that the compound is set to 14 1/2º instead of 30º and you can't take as deep a cut because there is more of the tool in contact with the work. If you can cut a Unified thread you can cut an Acme thread, there's nothing magic about it.

I think I've read that with acme threads you feed straight in rather than at an angle like you do with a Unified thread. Is that true?
