(Knurling Technology Notes) A Complete Analysis of Metal Surface Knurling: Differences and Application Comparison of Hydraulic Knurling vs. Servo Knurling
What is a handlebar knurling machine? Understanding this machine makes handlingbar surface finishing a breeze! HC1002B [Housheng Machinery]
Speaking ofHandlebar knurling machine(Handlebar Knurling Machine) You might immediately think of some creaking, spinning machines in a factory, but this machine is actually used in…Motorcycle handlebars, bicycle handlebars, electric vehicle handlebarsIt plays a crucial role in the processing of these pipe parts.
The value of handlebar knurling: not only aesthetics, but also safety and brand
Many people think that knurling is just decoration, but actually...The real value lies in functionality and user experience.This effectively increases friction, allowing the rider to grip the wheel more firmly.
For handle manufacturers, knurling improves grip and reduces accidents caused by slipping.
For brands, unique texture designs can enhance brand recognition and help consumers remember your products.
For processing plants, choosing the right knurling equipment canSignificantly reduces manual operation time and improves consistency and mass production stability..
Metal surface texture processing knurling machine HC1002B A product specifically designed forKnurling machine for double-end surface texturing of metal pipe fittingsIt is mainly used in the manufacture of handlebars for motorcycles, bicycles and electric vehicles.
The HC1002B metal surface knurling machine is a highly efficient, stable, and specialized automated solution for knurling bicycle/motorcycle handlebars.

Introduction to Knurling Machine Equipment HC-10-02 Series
A knurling machine is a specialized device for creating knurled patterns on the surface of round or cylindrical workpieces. Through the pressing action of knurling wheels, various patterns such as anti-slip textures and decorative patterns can be formed on the workpiece surface. It is widely used in industries such as furniture tubing, bicycle parts, motorcycle handlebars, fitness equipment, and architectural hardware.
Ho Chier Enterprise Co., Ltd. launched HC-10-02 Series Knurling MachineBased on the different drive and control methods, they are divided into the following two models:
- HC-10-02H (Servo Type)
- HC-10-02C (Hydraulic type)
System Differences Explanation: Servo vs. Hydraulic
| project | Servo type HC-10-02H | Hydraulic type HC-10-02C |
| Z-axis drive method | Servo motor control | Hydraulic cylinder push |
| Number of processing sections | Multi-stage processing | Maximum two-stage processing |
| Position control | Multiple processing positions can be stored and recalled. | Manually adjust position |
| Speed control | Adjustable processing speed | constant speed |
| Processing efficiency | High speed, programmable, short processing time | Slower, fixed speed, and less efficient than servo-type. |
| User interface | It can be equipped with a touch screen and PLC control, making it easy to operate. | It uses buttons in conjunction with PLC control, making operation relatively basic. |
| Recording function | Processing records can be stored, which is beneficial for repetitive operations. | No logging function |
| Applicable to | Manufacturers with high requirements for processing flexibility, precision and efficiency | Production applications that are sensitive to cost and have low requirements for processing variations |
Selection Recommendation
- If you value Processing efficiency, degree of automation, programmable control and record managementRecommended choice Servo type HC-10-02HThis can improve overall production flexibility and accuracy.
- If your needs are relatively simple and you value machine stability and basic processing functions, you may consider... Hydraulic type HC-10-02CTo maintain good performance while controlling equipment budget.

Which industries are suitable for investing in knurling machines?
You think this machine is only suitable for the motorcycle industry? Wrong. In fact, the following industries have already been using it successfully:
- bicycle industryKnurling on faucet, seat post, and pedal parts
- Fitness equipment factorySurface texturing of dumbbells and resistance bands
- Electric scooters, electric-assisted bicyclesAnti-slip handle manufacturing
- Tool handle manufacturingScrewdrivers, pliers, hand tools with metal handles
As long as you haveSurface finishing requirements for round tubes, handles, and rod-shaped metal partsThis machine can be a great help.
