Tap Holders for Large Tapping Capacity Applications



Emuge Corp. is offering its KSN5 and KSN6 Softsynchro tap holders that are designed for tapping operations in components used in oil, power generation and wind turbine applications and in the production of large diesel, locomotive and ship engines.

The KSN5 series is for tap sizes M16 to M56 and ANSI sizes to 1-3/4". The KSN5 series uses the ER50GB collet and is available in both DIN and ANSI tap sizes. Tension and compression of 2 mm is used in machines with rigid tapping cycles. Coolant-through capability is available up to 50 bar and the KSN5 series is also available with an integral shank CAT50 or HSK100A.

The KSN6 series is for sizes M24 to M76 and uses Emuge HE2 large QC tap adapters used currently on Emuge HF20 tap holders. Emuge HE2-IKZZ adapters are available in both DIN and ANSI tap sizes 1" through 2-1/2". The KSN6 has 2 mm of tension and 2 mm of compression for rigid tapping cycles. The tool is coolant-through capable to a maximum of 50 bar.

Emuge KSN Series tool holders are designed to provide improved concentricity, rigidity and safe tool clamping in machines with synchronous spindles. Axial forces that occur in the threading process are minimized by the use of an integrated minimum length compensation on tension and compression.
