Universal Hydraulic Toolholder, with Extended Lengths



The TENDO E compact from SCHUNK is a universal toolholder that is suitable for applications such as milling, drilling and reaming. SCHUNK now offers new extended lengths in CAT 40 (4") and CAT 50 (6"). Both are suitable for long reach applications and in multi-axis machines.

"For the first time ever, hydraulic expansion toolholders can safely transfer torques of up to 520 Nm (384 ft-lbs.) at a 20 mm clamping diameter and are suited for high volume cutting," said a company spokesperson.

With enhanced vibration damping and precise run out accuracy of less than 0.003 mm (0.0001") at 2.5 x D, the TENDO E compact protects the machine spindle and the cutting tool from damage. The hydraulic expansion toolholder is designed to work well across the application range from rough milling to finish operations such as reaming and fine milling.

"In roughing operations, tool cost reductions of up to 40% have been achieved with TENDO E compact. Tools can be quickly changed with an Allen key, making this hydraulic expansion toolholder an ideal choice for operations where the toolholder quantities do not justify peripheral equipment purchases," added the spokesperson.

Common spindle connections are available, including interfaces HSK-A63, SK40, BT40, CAT40 and CAT50.
