Platinum Tooling is now the North American importer of the Quick knurling and marking tools from Hommel and Keller.
Hommel and Keller says it manufactures the Quick line with a focus on function and innovation, with quality, precision and stability being key principals of the tools.
Benefits of cut knurling include maximum precision and surface quality, knurling of thin-walled components without deformation and time savings due to faster cutting speeds and feed rates. Additional advantages are machining of most materials (including gray cast iron and plastic), with minimal (or zero) alternation of the workpiece diameter and minimal surface compaction.
In form knurling, machining of the workpiece by cold forming compresses the surface of the workpiece. Knurling is possible up to a workpiece shoulder, at any position of the workpiece of the inner and end faces as well as conical. All knurling profiles according to DIN 82 can be produced.
Among its offering, Quick also has knurling tools with interchangeable jaws and knurling wheels available from stock. Wheels with special dimensions and pitches can be customized.
Quick marking tools can mark workpieces in seconds and on a wide variety of geometries independent of workpiece diameter. They are said to be ideal for machines with small installation space and can mark up to a shoulder.
