As an additional service we supply complete parts machined to your specifications. We work to ISO 9002 Quality Standards and offer a fast turnaround at competitive rates.

Our Competitive Advantage

The elmass® Technology is based on guided broaching tools and vertical broaching machines. It offers many advantages and eliminates common problems such as misalignment of the keyway as well as vibration or deflection of the cutting tool which are associated with conventional broaching and slotting machines.

Our guided broaches are self-centering and force the cutter to be in a 90 degree angle to the bore. The eccentric guide bush inhibits any deflection of the tool bar.

The precision ground tips, which have a highly defined geometrical shape, cut with zero clearance. We carry a large range of standard tools in H9, P9 and JS9 tolerances. Tools of any other shape or tolerance can be made to your requirements within a few days. The eccentric guide bush inhibits any deflection of the tool bar. This results in a keyway or spline, that maintains the depth over the entire length of the cut. The eccentric guide bush inhibits any deflection of the tool bar.

The tools are easy to mount and use:

It takes just a few minutes to set up the tools for any manual machine:

  • Select the required toolbar, guide bush and cutter for the application
  • Insert cutter into the tool bar
  • Mount the guide bush and align it parallel to the square of the tool bar
  • Insert the advance bar
  • Mount the main body assembly and the tool holder
  • Advance the cutter out and lock its final position with the grub screw
  • Mount the torque rod that stops the spindle from turning
  • Mount the assembled tool on the machine

elmass®NC-CONTROLLED BROACHING MACHINES:

Elmass Internal Keyways is a division of G & O Kert P/L. We broach all keyways and splines exclusively on the elmass® NC-controlled broaching machines. These compact broaching machines are built to fully utilize the advantages of the guided elmass® broaching tools.

Portable Keyway Slotting Machine

The P10-200 NC, P20-250 NC and the P36-NC vertical broaching machines are sold in a two axis or three axis configuration. The very versatile machines have a small foot print and are easy to commission. The machines are built on a modular concept that allows them to be adapted to specific applications as shown below.

All machines are equipped with a user friendly touch screen for easy programming. The interactive touch screen panel makes it easy to enter the required basic information such as bore diameter, keyway width, keyway depth, actual position of cutting tool as well as feeds and speeds. No NC-code is required.

From the few entered key variables the machine calculates all required machining parameters automatically. All parameters can be optimized manually if required.

To meet your specific production requirements our machines can be enhanced with many options:

All the two axis broaching machines can be upgraded with an optional elmass® NC-turntable at any time. The elmass® NC-turntables are especially designed to withstand the high impact load generated by the broaching process. The elmass® NC-turntables can be modified to work on other machines on request.

The optional integrated cross table simplifies the positioning of parts and is especially useful for jobbing shops. This cross table moves the entire work table directly without sacrificing any vertical dimension.

Machine Keyway Keys

The optional hand wheel simplifies the set up process and gives the opertor control of all axis where ever he stands.
