SwissQuick Tooling Boosts Swiss Machine Uptime
July 1, 2013
"REGO-FIX's SwissQuick ER-to-ER adapters allow users to preset tooling offline and replace worn tools in seconds, thereby reducing downtime and increasing productivity on Swiss-style machines. These adapters are ideal for automation and lights-out operations because there is no need to touch off the tools after a routine change," said a company spokesperson.
Space-saving SwissQuick adapters are short "miniature" toolholders that feature a larger solid ER body on the back end that remains in the machine and a smaller ER series cavity in front - essentially two holders in one. Such a design allows for the shortest, most rigid ER-to-ER reduction available.
"Through its solid ER body style, the SwissQuick adapter improves machining accuracy with a taper to collet cavity TIR of less than 0.0001". The body also allows the adapter to be repeatable within 0.0004" on tool length," said the spokesperson.
"Made from high tensile strength case-hardened steel, SwissQuick adapters provide reduced wear for an increase in tool life," said the spokesperson. The solid ER body profiles on these adapters come in fine and coarse thread options and range from ER 11 to ER 32, with a variety of ER cavity outputs from ER 8 to ER 20. SwissQuick Adapters are also available utilizing the REGO-FIX powRgrip system.
