The following table gives standardized diameter pitches and dimensional relationships when producing straight, diagonal, and diamond knurling on cylindrical surfaces having teeth of uniform pitch parallel to the cylinder axis or at a helix angle not exceeding 45 degrees with the work axis.

The diameter of the workpieces changes depending on the pitch of the knurl, and the user needs to calculate the correct blank diameter to get the desired final diameter after knurling. The forces are high, depending on the feed, diameter, and knurl’s width.

For knurls listed as a Metric Pitch, the pitch on straight knurls is the approximate tooth to tooth distance at the outside diameter of the work part measured in millimeters. For diagonal and diamond wheels, the Metric Pitch is measured perpendicular to the teeth or helix angle.

2007年12月14日 · First, knurl pitch and its relationship to part diameter. Then my method. Knurls are described by pitch, teeth angle, roll diameter and hole diameter. Knurl Pitch is simply the number of knurls (teeth) per unit length of measure. Some knurl (rolls) are labeled with the pitch or you may have to make the calculation yourself.

Diametral pitch knurls are designed to track uniformly on fractional size stock up to 1" in multiples of 1/32" or 1/64". They are held to closer tolerances for this purpose. The American Standard recommends that the use of 64 Diametral Pitch knurls be avoided as much as possible, and that preference be given to the use of 96 D.P. knurls for ...

2021年5月7日 · Knurling is a finishing process in metalworking where grooves or patterns are formed on the surface of a finished part. This is achieved by a rotating tool that impressions the desired pattern into the metal. A knurling tool produces a ridged pattern on shafts, gears, tools, pipes and other round-shaped components.

In the middle of the 20th century, some knurl manufacturers (Armstrong and Williams) sold only 3 different pitches of diagonal knurling wheels as standard: Coarse, Medium and Fine. They measured the pitch of their tools by the “transverse TPI” (TTPI) as shown below. 1/transverse circular pitch = TTPI. The 3 pitches were:

2023年4月12日 · The pitch of a knurl is the distance between two adjacent teeth on the knurling tool. To calculate the pitch, divide the circumference of the workpiece by the number of teeth desired. The diameter of the workpiece must be an integral multiple of the pitch to ensure proper meshing of the knurling tool and workpiece.

This tool can be used to calculate an appropriate diameter for knurling, assuming you know the circular pitch of your knurl and the diameter of your stock. If your knurl doesn't have the pitch written on the side (or if you want more confidence in the accuracy), coat the knurl with some stamping ink or machinists blue and run it along a piece ...

2024年10月12日 · Knurling is a manufacturing process used to create a patterned texture on cylindrical workpieces. Proper speeds and feeds are critical for achieving high-quality knurls and maximizing tool life. This guide will cover everything you need to know about selecting the right parameters for knurling operations.
