zeus® Form Knurling Tool Series RD2 (161/162)

General information

General

General
The zeus® RD2 series 161/162 allows for fine machining. Due to the special design with zwo knurl holders, the lateral pressure exerted on on work piece and machine is minimal. The series is therefore especially suitable for form knurling small and delicate parts. Several versions are available for different applications and machine types. Wherever workspace is limited and tiny work piece diameters have to be knurled, this tool range should be the first choice!  

Tool direction:

  • Plunge knurling
  • Feed knurling

Application advantages

Rigidity and precision:

  • No lateral pressure - reduced strain on work piece and machine
  • Round shank with four flat sides - for an optimal clamping and tool positioning (Model 162)

Easy tool handling:

  • Easy adjustment of the knurl holder to work piece diameter and centre height
  • Easy setting of work piece diameter with setting scale (Model 162)
  • Pin with face - fixed by a screw - for a quick replacement of the knurling wheels

High wear resistance:

  • Special surface hardening for increased tool life
  • Carbide pins / bushings for higher speed rates, faster production, prolonged life

Application-oriented product design:

  • Modular shank system for cost-effective use on all CNC- / and cam-controlled swiss type autolathes (Model 161 for swiss type autolathes)
  • Suitable for limited work spaces - tool designed for small machine spaces and working in axial tool direction. Suitable for back end working.
  • Tool versions available for knurling to a shoulder
  • Retooling accessories available for knurling to a shoulder
