Gewefa offers a wide range of standard and special purpose hydraulic toolholders with the Grindtec hydro chuck introduction extending the range into applications for bespoke tool grinding machines.<\/p>\n

A key feature is an adjustment mechanism that enables compensation of the run out at the tip of the clamped cutter to zero tolerance, eliminating run out errors between the tool tip and the spindle. This is achieved by adjusting three screws located in a ring fitted around the toolholder body. The cutter shank is therefore slightly \u2018fine-tuned\u2019 to achieve zero accuracy of its position at a distance 100 mm from the ring.<\/p>\n

Also featured will be the recently introduced Gewefa \u2018HydroPin\u2019 single point boring bar toolholder. This Gewefa invented toolholder utilises the proven tool grip features of a hydraulic chuck with the added advantage of guaranteeing fixed orientation when positioning the bar.<\/p>\n

Shell mill adaptors with a hydraulic spigot location will also be featured alongside Gewefa\u2019s VDI hydraulic chuck range, which feature a unique clamping tool holding system and are suited to both turning and boring applications offering the user a range of machining advantages.<\/p>\n

The key to the clamping system\u2019s success is its high level of stability, with anti-vibration features inherent within the hydraulic clamping mechanism producing not only quieter cutting performance and improved finish but also enabling significant increases in speeds and feeds to shorten machining times.<\/p>\n

Insert life is significantly improved with 50 percent savings on inserts regularly achieved, resulting not just in cost savings but in reduced machine downtime.<\/p>\n

Finally the Gewefa \u2018Securlok\u2019 toolholder will be featured. This is a hydraulic chuck that, with the addition of a failsafe second mechanical side clamping mechanism, provides 100 percent tool shank and process security.<\/p>\n

For general and heavy duty milling operations in titanium, composites and ISO S rated materials often used in airframe manufacture, Securlok withstands radial and axial forces on the cutting tool, forces that are likely to create conditions with the potential for the cutter to slip or pull out.<\/p>\n

It also offers guaranteed concentricity within 0.003 mm TIR maximum, while anti-vibration dampening ensures longer cutter life and is completely sealed to prevent swarf or coolant ingress.<\/p>\n
