Platinum Tooling, the importer and master distributor of live tools, angle heads, Swiss machine products, knurling and marking tools manufactured by various international suppliers, will now carry REV broaching tools exclusively in North America. This announcement was made by Platinum Tooling President Preben Hansen at the company's headquarters in Prospect Heights, IL, near Chicago.
REV S.R.L., located in northern Italy, is the manufacturer of innovative broaching solutions for CNC lathes and machining centers. The tools are designed for machining simple keyways or internal and external profiles, both teeth and splines. "Common profiles, including square and hexagon, are easily achieved and custom profiles are available. REV Broaching Tools offer excellent performance with long insert life and high surface quality," said spokesperson.
The REV motorized broaching tool is designed for use on live tool lathes. Single machine set-up eliminates the need for secondary operation or outsourcing. REV tools are suited 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, according to the company.
REV static broaching tools are for use on CNC lathes with or without Y-axis. They offer a patented eccentric bushing that eliminates alignment errors for machines without a Y-axis. The tools have a sturdy two-piece construction and are suited 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 allow for a wide variety of standard and custom profiles and sizes.
"REV broaching tools are a perfect complement to the Heimatec live tools that are sold by the extensive network of Platinum Tooling manufacturers' representatives and distributors throughout North America," said the spokesperson.
