Pneumatic deburring tool CRT-12-5

for metalsfor plastics

Product overview
Designed for removal of parting lines and flash in confined spaces, the CRT-12-5 reciprocating file provides pneumatic reciprocating motion with minimal chatter and vibration. Its built-in compliance and adjustable cutting force simplify robot integration and reduce cycle time compared with manual deburring.
