Improve stability, accuracy in rotating tools applications when applied to Swiss-type and multitasking machines

An excellent way to improve stability and accuracy in rotating tools applications when applied to Swiss-type and multitasking machines is to improve clamping stability by use of integral collets. What is an integral collet? An integral collet is a tool with a tapered shank for direct mounting on ER collet chucks. When compared to a typical spring collet clamp, the integral collet provides better accuracy and higher rigidity. This feature makes integral collets very promising for use in Multitasking and Swiss-type machines. Iscar offers several tool families with integral collets.

Shaft Collars

Shaft Collars Now Available in Inch-Sizes
Also known as set collars, shaft collars are used to clamp and position components to a shaft, such as tools, fittings, or machinery and transmission including bearings, gearboxes and motors. WDS’ new inch-size shaft-collars are based on the company’s original metric design but with dimensions to suit OEMs and end users based in North America, as well as machine builders shipping to the North American market.

BMT65 Tool Holders

Parlec BMT65 tool holders are available in I.D. styles for 1”, 1-1/2” 25mm, and 40mm tool diameters for single-sided holders and in 1-1/4” for double-sided holders. O.D. style holders are available in 1” and 25mm for both single and double-sided setups.

High-speed electric spindle demo with micro tool

When considering options for speed, NSK America Corp. and OSG USA Inc. teamed up to highlight the benefits of proper speed applied to high-quality tooling. For the project, they machined their respective company logos onto a coin to showcase the intricate geometries and engravings that are possible with microtooling. They used a window machining process, along with NSK America’s HES510-CAT50 electric spindle and OSG USA’s AE-LNBD-N 1 mm long-neck, ballnose endmill, to achieve an ultrafine surface finish.

TungTurn-Jet Toolholder Systems

TungTurn-Jet Toolholder With Streamlined Coolant Nozzle Design
The toolholders feature a coolant outlet built in the body. This streamlined design is more effective than conventional through-coolant toolholders that have an adjustable coolant nozzle or bulky nozzle assembly. With reduced number of parts, the new toolholders expand the TungTurn-Jet range with an economical option that can contribute to customers seeking further tool cost reductions, while maintaining effective chip control and maximum tool life.
