FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The selection of the appropriate tool holder should be determined based on machining precision and the structure of the workpiece. For instance, hydraulic chucks are preferred for operations requiring high precision, as they offer superior clamping force and centering accuracy. They ensure the secure fixation of workpieces and are commonly used in CNC machines. Additionally, factors such as the size and shape of the workpieces, as well as the maximum required spindle speed during the operation, should also be considered.
5-axis vises offer significant advantages, especially in machining parts with complex geometries and high precision requirements. These holders provide multi-directional movement capability to the parts, reducing the need for repositioning and ensuring accuracy. They are commonly used in precision industries such as aerospace and medical device manufacturing.
For heavy-duty operations such as rough milling, a strong and durable holder is essential. Four-jaw hydraulic chucks are ideal for large and heavy workpieces, as they provide greater support and stability. During such operations, adequate clamping force must be applied to keep the workpiece secure and ensure safe operation.
ER collets are commonly used in applications involving lighter or moderate loads. These holders stand out for their flexibility in operations such as drilling and milling. Available in both small and large sizes, they securely hold tools of various dimensions.
Yes, hydraulic and shrink-fit holders are designed to absorb vibrations during cutting, enhancing surface quality. Minimizing vibrations is particularly important for extending tool life and improving workpiece quality.
