EXSYS Tool, Inc. has expanded its line of PRECI-FLEX modular tooling systems to include a 10,000 RPM, 1:1 ratio rotary tool for Mazak QUICK TURN and QTU Series Turning Centers. The faster toolholders match the processing speed of optional 10,000 RPM machine spindles to boost productivity and achieve enhanced surface finishes.
"Manufactured by EPPINGER, PRECI-FLEX offers enhanced flexibility, precision and cost savings. The short, compact design with monoblock housing provides maximum torque transmission and rigidity, resulting in increased machining accuracy and improved productivity," said a company spokesperson. Additionally, PRECI-FLEX's conical and flat face planar interface allows the use of either an adapter or a standard ER collet, and enables collets, endmill holders, expanding collet chucks and shrinks fit tooling to be mounted on a single base holder.
The tooling system also features an EXSYS/EPPINGER compensating clutch with a floating coupling between turret drive motor tangs and toolholders that automatically compensates for any misalignment. The resulting high-precision alignment reduces vibration and tool chatter, which, in turn, makes for longer tool life and better surface finishes.
Available in a range of sizes, the 10,000 RPM, 1:1 ratio PRECI-FLEX is available in horizontal (H) type 90° radial holders and vertical (V) type straight off-set axial holders. Every toolholder provides repeatability within five microns. The system also virtually eliminates machine downtime and allows tooling adapters to be interchanged between fixed and rotary base holders for fast, economical machining.
