Accuracy in Small Diameter Cutting

Lyndex-Nikken offers the MMC Mini-Mini collet chuck that is designed to provide accuracy in small diameter cutting.

For manufacturers that need more clearance and flexibility in machining, the MMC Mini-Mini collet chuck features a slim and compact body for precision machining with small diameter tools (up to 0.500").

"This design enables high runout accuracy with superb surface finish and part tolerance," said a company spokesperson. "The MMC collet chuck is ideal for high speed machining applications where clearance is needed, such as die mold, aerospace, and medical parts. The MMC collet chuck is also an alternative to a shrink fit system."

An easy-to-use draw-in collet clamping mechanism (no collet nut required) enables strong, high-precision gripping from the front nose that can access hard to reach areas.

"Because a collet system is used, tool changeover is faster and less expensive than a toolholding system that requires a machine in order to insert or extract the cutting tool," the spokesperson said. "The collet system for the MMC also allows for a wider range of sizes rather than needing a holder for each size of cutting tool. With very few parts to set up, the MMC collet chuck provides quick and accurate assembly."

The MMC collet chuck is precision ground and pre-balanced to 30,000 RPM at G2.5 with runout accuracy of 3 microns at 4 x D, enabling accuracy and reliability during high-speed operations.

The MMC collet chuck is also available in Taper Plus, which combines taper accuracy with flange rigidity. Additionally, MMC collet chucks have coolant through capabilities offered in a standard style coolant collet or jet slotted style collet.
