Knurling Tools According to DIN 82 – For Precise Knurling, Knurling Cutters, Knurling Forms, Knurling Stamping, and Knurling Pressing
Knurling tools are used wherever a gripping surface is needed on round or cylindrical workpieces. Especially in medical devices and hand-operated tools, the efficiently manufactured knurling profiles, such as those according to DIN 82, are of great importance. Our Zeus knurling tools offer innovative solutions to produce both cutting and forming knurling and cord divisions.
Knurling Cutters – For Precise Knurling Profiles
Our knurling cutters are operated at high rotational speeds on the workpiece. The cutting edge of the knurling tool removes material, creating the desired surface profiles of the workpiece. This chip-removing process allows for the processing of thin-walled or soft materials with less pressing force. It also enables clean and precise knurling in difficult-to-machine materials.
Advantages of Cut Knurling at a Glance
- Highest precision and surface quality, making it especially suitable for visual knurling
- Knurling of thin-walled workpieces without deformation
- Time savings through higher cutting speeds and feed rates
- Suitable for almost all materials, including gray cast iron and plastics
- No or minimal change in the outer diameter of the workpiece
- Low surface compression
Form Knurling (Stamping or Pressing)
By applying higher pressing force, the shape of the knurling tool is transferred onto the workpiece. Material from the workpiece flows into the knurling tool, allowing positive surface structures and knurling profiles to be formed. This process is suitable for materials with a flow limit up to 900 Nm.
Whether form knurling, stamping or pressing – we offer the right tools for your applications.
Knurling Profiles According to DIN 82
The achievable surface structures, patterns, and knurling profiles are documented in DIN 82. Our range includes knurling wheels and suitable holders, compatible with all common milling profiles such as RAA, RBL, RBR, and RGE, as well as shaped profiles like RGV, RKE, and RKV. This allows you to efficiently produce a wide variety of knurling profiles according to DIN 82.
Knurling Holders for All Machine Types
Whether for long-turning automatic machines, multi-spindle machines, or CNC-controlled equipment – we provide the appropriate holders for the right knurling wheel. This ensures optimal integration of our knurling tools into your production process.
