HSK TOOLS – Tooling system for turning on multi-task machines
High accuracy and rigidity HSK-T type tooling system developed for use on multi-task machines.
HSK-T System (ICTM standard)
HSK-T is a new HSK system designed for turning on multi-task machines that are compatible with HSK-A type (ISO standard: ISO12164-1:2001). It was jointly developed by a consortium of Japanese manufacturers and is now used worldwide as the ICTM standard. The HSK-T type was registered in the ISO standard in 2008. (ISO12164-3:2008)
High accuracy cutting edge positioning
The HSK-T type has a closer tolerance between the spindle key and tool holder keyway than the HSK-A type. This results in higher cutting edge positional accuracy. For milling, the conventional HSK-A type tools can be still used.
Compatible with both multi-task machines and machining centres
Improved keyway tolerance
Straight type tools suitable for use on multi-task machines
Avoid workpiece interference with improved tool accessibility.
By tilting the machines B spindle (main axis of the tool) at 45 deg, interference between the spindle, holder, workpiece and chuck can be avoided.
Improve centreline height by positioning the cutting edge at the centre of the spindle.
Increased stability and accuracy can be achieved because the cutting edge centreline height is not affected by the gap between the spindle and the key.
New one-action type double clamp series
The double clamp mechanism offers high rigidity, accuracy and reliability that ensures secure insert clamping. Making it suitable for difficult to machine materials such as stainless and heat resistant alloys.
3 on 1 tool for process and tool consolidation
3 turning inserts of the same geometry can be installed on a single tool.
New HSK-T100 size for large workpieces
Larger tool holder sizes for high efficiency machining.
