Overview
The TKC-5CNC is the compact entry into CNC knurling and strip insertion. Five axes lift and adjust independently, automatic sensing handles strip clamping and release, and a profile change needs only a one-button reset — no manual re-tuning between jobs.
With a 1200 × 900 mm footprint it fits workshops that are moving off manual lines, while twin lower support rollers and scan-code profile import keep special-shaped sections and repeat jobs equally quick.
Key Features
- 5-axis CNC lifting with independent parameter adjustment; adapts to special-shaped and high/low-table profiles.
- Automatic strip clamping/release sensing; one-button reset on profile change — no manual debugging.
- Compact footprint — 1200 × 900 mm, ideal for workshops upgrading from manual knurling.
- Twin lower support rollers manually adjustable up/down/left/right for stable processing of shaped sections.
- Scan-code import of profile data on the intelligent control system with automatic nesting.

Working Process
- Load & clamp — the profile is sensed and clamped automatically at the knurling station.
- Knurling — CNC-controlled cutters roll a uniform tooth pattern into the strip groove, raising contact friction.
- Strip insertion — the PA66 strip is fed and clamped into the knurled groove in the same pass.
- Outfeed — the finished profile continues to the rolling machine or buffer rack without repositioning.
Quality & Standards
Precision square guide rails, precision ball screws and Schneider electrical components keep the machine stable around the clock. Combined with CNC automatic operation, tooth precision and insertion quality stay uniform from the first profile to the last in every batch.
Applications
- Aluminium window and door profile plants inserting PA66 strips into thermal-break sections.
- Workshops moving from manual strip insertion to CNC-controlled, one-operator production.
- Lines that need fast changeover across many profile families and strip widths.
FAQ
Which profiles can it handle?
The CNC-adjustable cutter covers strip widths and groove heights within the specification table above. Send us your profile drawings and we will confirm compatibility before you order.
Can it connect to a rolling machine?
Yes. The machine is designed for linked production — profiles pass straight from knurling and insertion into the rolling & crimping station without flipping or re-clamping.
What about changeover between jobs?
Profiles are sensed and parameters recalled automatically — most changes need only a one-button reset instead of manual strip-height tuning.
