Platinum Tooling Becomes Distributor for Rev Broaching Tools

Platinum Tooling, an importer and distributor of live tools, angle heads, speed increasers, Swiss machine products, knurling and marking tools and shrink-fit toolholders manufactured by various international suppliers, will now carry Rev broaching tools in North America.

Rev S.R.L., located in Northern Italy, is the manufacturer of broaching solutions for CNC lathes and machining centers. The tools are ideal for machining simple keyways or internal and external profiles, both teeth and splines. Common profiles including square and hexagon are said to be easily achieved and custom profiles are available. According to the company, Rev broaching tools are designed to provide excellent performance with long insert life and high surface quality.

The Rev motorized broaching tool is designed for use on live-tool lathes. Single machine setup eliminates the need for secondary operation or outsourcing. Rev tools are ideal for high production runs, offer easy installation and fast processing time. These tools are designed for maximum rigidity, offer long tool life and an excellent finish.

Rev static broaching tools are for use on CNC lathes with or without a Y-axis. They offer a patented eccentric bushing, which eliminates alignment errors for machines without a Y-axis. The tools have a sturdy two-piece construction and are ideal for smaller runs. They are designed for use in boring bar holders on lathes and for use in collet chucks or Weldon holders on machining centers. Rev tools enable machining a wide variety of standard and custom profiles and sizes.

Platinum says that Rev broaching tools complement the Heimatec live tools that are sold its network of manufacturers’ representatives and distributors throughout North America.
