Toolholders enhance performance for small diameter tooling.

Toolholders enhance performance for small diameter tooling.

ColdSet(TM) toolholders employ SMAART(TM) technology making use of Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs). They use cold temperature process to trigger phase transformation in crystalline structure of alloy. Units dampen harmonics that generate chatter and have no moving parts, collets, or nosepieces to hamper balance repeatability. They are offered in standard sizes from .500 in. down to .125 in. with BT...
