WNT Modifix adaptors give driven tool users the benefits of exchangeability
WNT's Modifix adaptors, which will fit any standard ER collet-type driven tooling system, now provide a low-cost route to enhancing or replacing existing stocks of driven tooling. They are also available with sidelock and shell mill fittings, as well as the conventional collet chuck, extending the versatility of driven tooling units.
The simple interchangeability of the Modifix system means that tools can be pre-set in a separate holder and quickly interchanged when required, with the accuracy of the units giving greatly reduced setting times and increased machine run time. The short distance between the tool and the spindle bearings of the driven tool unit enhances tool set-up rigidity.
Modifix units are available with either an internal or external thread connection to suit the ER system. To install the adaptor, the operator simply removes the ER collet nut and attaches the Modifix adaptor, tightening it as they would the ER collet.
