REGO-FIX® to Highlight Toolholding Advancements at HOUSTEX 2015


INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – At HOUSTEX 2015, REGO-FIX will join its distributor partner, Robert H. Severance Group, Inc., who is occupying several booths throughout the show, to showcase its newest innovations in toolholding. On display will be a new version of the secuRgrip® anti-pullout toolholding system that can be used in any ER collet system and the Hi-Q®/ERMX Mini-Nut for Swiss automatic machine tool applications.



The secuRgrip system’s patented design provides a solid connection for high productivity machining operations. After the insert is placed into a tool’s standard Weldon endmill flat, screwing the tool into a collet that has a matching internal diameter profile securely locks the two together.



The secuRgrip system works with standard carbide or HSS endmills 0.5” to 0.75” in diameter, and provides TIR of 0.0004” or better. A backscrew enables presetting of tool length, and the hardened steel locking inserts are size-specific per diameter.



Visitors to HOUSTEX will also experience REGO-FIX’s Hi-Q/ERMX Mini-Nut for fast, secure ER collet nut clamping in Swiss automatic machine tool applications. Featuring an anti-slip locking design, these mini-nuts prevent the locking wrench from slipping off the nut during tool changes. As a result, machinists are able to protect their hands from injury when handling sharp cutting tools.



Milled slots on the outside diameter of the nut mate with corresponding features of the wrench to prevent slippage during the tightening and loosening processes. The Hi-Q design includes a special surface treatment to enhance clamping forces.



The Mini-Nuts replace any brand of older-style mini-nuts and are presently available in ER 16 and ER 20 sizes in standard and coolant versions.
