Chamfering—adding that clean, 45° beveled edge to your workpieces—is an essential step in metalworking and fabrication. It improves both the aesthetics and functionality of components by eliminating sharp edges that could cause injury or interfere with assembly.
The Challenge:
The Pneumatic Chamfering Tool Solution:
This tool operates using compressed air, which powers its variable speed motor for efficient cutting action.
It spins indexable carbide, replicable inserts, which are engineered to keep a sharp edge and reliably make consistent chamfers.
Each insert has three precision-ground cutting edges, allowing the operator to rotate each insert to an unused edge when one becomes dull. This eliminates the need for sharpening, reduces downtime, and ensures the perfect angle every time.
With its high-speed pneumatic operation, this chamfering tool dramatically reduces the time it takes to prepare edges compared to manual tools. The result is smoother, more consistent finishes in less time, which directly increases output and reduces labor costs.
The indexable inserts produce uniform and repeatable chamfers across multiple parts. This consistency is especially valuable in tight-tolerance
Instead of grinding or replacing a whole tool when it wears down, users can simply rotate or swap out the insert. This extends tool life, reduces overall maintenance, and keeps downtime to a minimum.
Designed to handle a wide range of materials, including mild steel, aluminum, plastic, wood, and other softer substrates, this tool adapts well to different applications. It’s a go-to solution for both industrial production lines and home workshops.
The tool can be adjusted to produce chamfers up to 3/32”, giving users flexibility depending on the requirements of the job.
It uses a TPGT1.5(1.5)1 three-sided insert, specifically effective for chamfering mild steels and softer workpiece materials. These inserts are easy to source and quick to replace, contributing to ongoing performance and ease of maintenance.
This tool’s compact size, pneumatic efficiency, and robust cutting ability make it suitable for a wide variety of environments, including:
The TTC Pneumatic Chamfering Tool is a powerful, time-saving asset for machinists, manufacturers, tool and die makers, and anyone looking to enhance efficiency, safety, and precision in edge finishing. Its use of indexable inserts and high-speed pneumatic power delivers superior performance with lower costs. Whether you’re preparing components for welding, removing burrs, or simply adding clean edges for professional results, this tool is engineered to perform with minimal effort and maximum reliability.
