May 13-15: REGO-FIX to Spotlight Popular Product Lines at EASTEC

The REGO-FIX ForceMaster measuring metrology tool and the company’s powRgrip tool holders will take center stage in booth 5350 at EASTEC 2025 from May 13-15, 2025 at the Eastern States Exposition in West Springfield, MA.

The ForceMaster drawbar tool makes machine tool spindle drawbar testing, tracking and documenting easier than ever, while the powRgrip high-precision tool holding system generates extremely high clamping forces equal to or higher than shrink-fit holders, the company reported.

"More than a dozen available adapters thread on to the ForceMaster tool to measure all popular spindle tapers, including HSK, SK, BT, CAT and others. This flexibility makes the ForceMaster a universal metrology tool for the shop floor. With one rugged, robust measuring tool, operators can ensure spindle clamping force meets manufacturer recommendations to mitigate chatter, tool and drawbar damage, while minimizing the risk of crashed spindles," a company spokesperson said.

The ForceMaster also integrates into digital production environments and is fully accessible via a mobile app available for Apple and Android devices. The device dashboard can be mirrored to perform measurements remotely, and all information is downloadable for analysis and tracking.

EASTEC show attendees will also experience how the safe, precise and cost-effective powRgrip system, which includes a holder, collet and mounting unit, generates six tons of force. The system relies on the interference between holder and collet to generate its clamping force.

Unlike other clamping systems where heat or hydraulics are used to expand the material, the powRgrip uses the mechanical properties of the holder material to generate tremendous gripping force with run-out below 0.0001", the company reported. Interchangeable collets are available from 0.2 mm up to 1", including metric sizes, and will hold both carbide and HSS tools.

Designed for easy operation and use, the powRgrip system takes less than 10 seconds to press in a tool or remove it from the holder. Because no heat is used, tools can be used immediately after a tool change. Cycle testing exceeded over 20,000 insertions and removals, outperforming other systems on the market, the company reported.
