AMF Marking and Clean- ing Tools Now Available From Heimatec USA Heimatec Inc., the NorthAmerican importer of precision live tools, angle heads and multi-spindle drill heads, announces immediate availability of marking and cleaning tools from its European partner Andreas Maier, un- der theAMF brand. The announcement was made by the president of Heimatec Inc., Preben Hansen. “This develop- ment brings additional products to our current customers and responds to the market needs for quality marking and cleaning tools for workpieces in CNC machining,” he observed. AMF marking tools are used for the permanent marking of workpieces made from all types of metal and thermoplastic substrates. They are typically mounted in Toolholders for use in the spindle of a CNC machine tool. Marking surfaces is achieved by a combination process of pressure and material displacement. These tools can function with or without rotation and usually without height adjustment on the spindle. Very thin material as well as cylindrical workpieces can be easily marked, using AMF tools. AMF cleaning tools are used for the cleaning of workpieces, tooling and the interior of CNC machines. They are typically clamped in Toolholders and mounted directly onto the machine
