High Performance Toolholder for Micro Machining



SCHUNK is offering the TRIBOS-RM precision toolholder as a solution for micro machining with the ISO interface. The one-piece, rotationally symmetric design is engineered to provide long life of the machine spindles and the complete transmission of power.

"Unlike heat shrink clamping, the TRIBOS-RM is designed to achieve steady tool clamping that will not distort the toolholder. The user will benefit from a precise run-out accuracy of less than 0.003 mm, which is optimal with small tools for micro machining," said a company spokesperson.

The TRIBOS-RM is designed for high spindle speeds of up to 60,000 RPM in high-speed cutting, making it suitable for the high speeds involved in micro machining. Sizes ISO 10 D 1 - 6 mm are available. The balancing grade is G 2.5 at 25,000 RPM.
