Form Knurling

Knurling involves forming the surface of the workpiece without cutting.
This is a cold forming of the metallic material.
The forming process increases the outer diameter in this method.
A major advantage of this knurling technique is the versatility of the application area.
All profiles as well as end knurls, inner knurls or conical knurls can be produced.
This technique can also be used to knurl right up to the collar.

When knurling, the tool can be applied to any point on the workpiece.
We always have the right tool for your application in our portfolio:

  • The RD1 series for knurling is highly effective.
    They can be used for a wide variety of knurling applications and are also easy to operate.
    All profiles and lettering can be produced.
    Knurling can also be carried out at any point on the workpiece.
  • The tools in the RD2 series are primarily used to produce RGE profiles in the axial machining direction.
    The knurling width can be selected as required thanks to the longitudinal knurling.
  • Our RD3 series for the axial machining of end pieces meets the high customer expectations for stability and precision when machining the smallest diameters.
    This series is primarily used in the precision engineering industry.
