Leistritz Production Technology: Keyseating Machines

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides a detailed description of Leistritz's profile and keyseating machines, highlighting their applications, advantages, and technical specifications. These machines are used across various industries, including woodworking, mechanical engineering, and drive engineering.
Applications: Keyseating machines are versatile and used for creating hexagonal profiles, helical keyways, cylindrical cones with keyways, blind hole keyways, oil grooves, feather keyways, spline profiles, and involute profiles. They are applicable in agriculture, pipe fittings, extrusion technology, and more.
Keyseating Advantages: Compared to slotting and broaching, keyseating offers greater precision, higher surface quality, and flexibility. The CNC-controlled machining allows for superior quality in cutting keyways into blind holes, helical keyways, and oil grooves. The process is economical, precise, and flexible, with low tool costs and short delivery times.
Technical Specifications: The document details various machine models, including POLYMAT and POLYJET series, with specifications such as cutting width, length, force, workpiece weight, and cutting speed. The machines are designed for both hard and soft machining, with features like high cutting speeds and low maintenance requirements.
Machine Features: The machines include components like manual and automatic indexers, remote control for bulky workpieces, automatic workpiece clamps, and tilting tables for conical bores. They are equipped with CNC Control SINUMERIK 828d, allowing control of up to 5 axes and featuring an intuitive user interface.
Tool Sets and Systems: The document describes various tool sets, cutters, and centering sets, each covering specific machining ranges. The tools are selected based on keyway width, borehole diameter, and keyway length, ensuring precise and efficient machining.
Global Presence: Leistritz has a global presence with facilities in the USA, Germany, and China, providing advanced production technology and support worldwide.

↗ Keyseating - principle - advantages ↗ Keyseating - principle - advantages HOW KEYSEATING WORKS The keyseating process cuts a keyway in stepwise manner. A cutter is pulled vertically with a continual stroke movement along the borehole, combined with a horizontal thrust motion. The thrust is delivered after each stroke by a feed bar that thrusts the cutter in steps between the cutter guide bar and cutter bar. To ensure gentle machining for the tool and workpiece, the cutter is automatically lifted off before the upward movement. The keyseating machines are equipped with a twin-column hydraulic...
