Hydratight DL Ricci’s Keyway Cutter is a simple but powerful machine. This small, portable milling machine clamps on the end of the shaft (or anywhere along it) and, using a rotary tool, cuts new keyways, or re-cuts worn keyways in-situ.
With the "V" type-mounting base, the Keyway Cutter will self-centre onto an existing shaft, once the milling machine tool is clamped in place. The Keyway Cutter is capable of cutting keyways up to 1" wide. This compact modular design allows quick set-up in confined work areas.
The Keyway Cutter can accommodate either a pneumatic or hydraulic spindle drive motor.
The XYZ Keyway Cutter offers all the features of our standard Keyway Cutter, plus the capability of 3 axis milling. This versatility in a milling machine provides users with a variety of creative machining options without costly dismantling. The XYZ Keyway Cutter is perfect for the machining of keyway grooves with more precise specifications.
Our range of heavy duty Keyway Cutters provides the ability to cut keyways in shafts from .4" to 24" in diameter. The cutter can mount on the end of the shaft (or anywhere along it), and even upside down. With the "V" type mounting base, the Keyway Cutter will self-center onto an existing shaft, once the machine is clamped into place.
Easy handling and operation are inherent in the compact modular design that allows set-up of this precise milling tool in confined work areas. The Keyway Cutter comes with an electric drive motor.
