Platinum Tooling now offers REV broaching tools

Platinum Tooling will now carry REV broaching tools in North America. This announcement was made by Platinum Tooling president, Preben Hansen at its headquarters in Prospect Heights, Ill.

REV S.R.L., located in Northern Italy, is the manufacturer of broaching tools for CNC lathes and machining centres. The tools are suitable 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.

The REV motorized broaching tool is designed for use on live tool lathes. Single machine setup eliminates the need for secondary operation or outsourcing, the company states.

REV static broaching tools are for use on CNC lathes with or without Y axis. They offer a patented eccentric bushing, which eliminates alignment errors for machines without a Y axis. The tools have a two-piece construction and are suitable 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 centres.
