Premium materials
As your supplier of premium tool products we insist on materials that
allow machining of hard-to-machine and pressure resistant materials.
All knurling wheels in the standard zeus product line are therefore
made of power metal.
The material features high hot hardness and compression strength,
as well as durability and resistance to wear.
Surface treatment
Suitable treatment based on
your individual application
can have a positive effect on
the life of the knurling wheel.
We offer different treatment
processes.
TENIFER ®
salt-bath nitriding heat treatment
Treatment of the knurling wheel in a salt bath based on the TENIFER ®
process increases the resistance to wear and the fatigue strength.
The salt-bath nitrocarburising process achieves a high case hardness.
PVD coatings
Suitable PVD coating of the knurling wheels offers the user additional
possibilities for increasing tool life. These variants are available on
request. PVD coatings are suitable primarily for cut knurling applications.
Polished knurling wheels
The use of finely polished knurling wheels can be effective for machin-
ing of adhesive materials that require optimal chip sliding. This process
achieves very smooth surfaces, with a low coefficient of friction. Edge
radiusing on the tooth flanks prevents built-up edges from forming and
therefore premature tooth breakage.
