The application

  • Work pieces with two differing conical knurling profiles
  • Suitable for small work piece diameters

 

The tool - RW 161-S

Rändelwerkzeug 161-S

  • Knurling tool with two knurl holders for tangential tool direction
  • Each knurl holder carries a conical knurling wheel with different profiles and pitch sizes
  • Swivelling tool head for angle adjustment
  • Suitable for CNC, automatic sliding head screw machines and multispindle automatic lathes

 

Application advantages

  • Through the simultaneous working of both knurling wheels, the processing time and the piece costs are reduced.
  • Improved machine space usage, as for two different knurling profiles only one tool place is occupied.
  • Pressure minimizing tool construction:The double-sided guiding results in a balancing of the forces exerted on the work piece.

 

Your benefits

  • Reduced production times
  • Improved machine usage
  • Reduced investment costs safety
