Slim-Fit Modular Tool Holding System
With Techniks Slim-Fit system machinists can choose from either shrink-fit or collet-style tool holding without changing holders. John Stagge, President of Techniks, said; "We designed Slim-Fit to provide the best features of all our toolholders in one system. Slim-Fit has turned out to be the most affordable shrink-fit solution on the market today, and provides the accuracy and flexibility shops need to maintain a competitive edge".
Specifications:
o Maximum runout only 0.0002"
o Accuracy 0.0001" from AT3 taper to collet pocket
o Balanced to 18,000 RPM at G2.5
o Shrink-fit holding power for high rigidity
o Slim-Fit collets hold tighter than ER collets
o No collet nuts or torque wrench needed
o Each tool lab-certified for T.I.R., accuracy, and balance
Slim-Fit is naturally balanced and designed to reach into tight spaces easily. According to Techniks, the drawbar-style holder provides extra holding power on the tool shank, and allows fast and easy changes between collets, collet extensions, and shrink-fit extensions. Stagge also said: "Machine shops will benefit from reduced start-up costs, faster set-ups, and improved tool life".
