Profilator S-500 machine with Scudding process
Star SU, LLC has formed an alliance with Profilator to manufacture Scudding tools for the global market and in North America in cooperation with GMTA in Ann Arbor, MI. "Scudding is an improvement on traditional power skiving technology for gear production, proven in the market to be faster, more accurate and versatile in use," said a company spokesperson. "Often thought to be limited to internals only, Scudding is fast beginning to compete in shaping, broaching and other gear cutting applications for gears and splines."
According to the company, David Goodfellow, President of Star SU, LLC, is pleased with the new partnership. "Star SU is using its vast experience of gear cutting tool technology for new tool development, as well as its tool service centers to support Profilator on this new technology process," said Goodfellow. "We are looking forward to working with Profilator and GMTA and see this as mutually beneficial for each company."
Star SU, LLC offers a variety of machine tools, precision cutting tools and services.
