Platinum Tooling Technologies, Inc., the exclusive importer of Heimatec live tools, angle heads, and multiple spindle heads, offers immediate delivery on standard BMT (Base Mount Tooling) products. Platinum Tooling, headquartered in Prospect Heights, Illinois, serves the North American Market.
In addition to standard X and Z axis tools, styles such as adjustable tools, speed increasers, and internal coolant tools with capabilities up to 140 bar (2000 PSI) are now available in an assortment of standard BMT tooling sizes, including BMT 45, 55, 65, 75, and 85.
All Heimatec BMT tooling is supplied with the company’s patented u-tec® changing system, which provides flexibility to standard ER collet systems. The output of the tools can be easily changed through the use of adapters including arbors for face mills, Weldon for side lock, or ER collet extensions. The built-in polygon drive connection allows for extremely high-power transmission. In addition, the internal collet nut design further allows the cutting tool to be in closer proximity to the bearing, which results in much higher rigidity. The cutting tools last longer and yield an improved finish, as a result of this Heimatec design feature.
All Heimatec BMT tooling is manufactured at the company’s home facility in Germany and is now stocked at Platinum Tooling located in the Chicagoland area, which serves the North American machine tool market.
Platinum Tooling has an extensive manufacturer’s representative network across North America to help service our many authorized machine tool distributors, industrial supply companies, and OEM’s.
