Shrink-fit Tool Holders

Offering superb accuracy and low runout, companies choose Shrink-fit tool holders over conventional Collet tool holders for a wide variety of reasons. Cutting tool access into small tight cavities is one such reason – with MST Shrink-fit tool holding solutions having a smaller diameter therefore a clear advantage over conventional Collet held cutting tools.

Shrink-fit tool holder technology from MST Mizoguchi Corporation

Shrink fit tool holders utilise the expansion and contraction properties of metal to provide extremely powerful tool holding. The bore in the backend tool holder is slightly smaller than the tool shank, and when heated it expands just enough to allow the tool to be inserted. When it cools, the contraction of the metal holds the cutting tool with 10,000 lbs of force. This means the machining is highly stable which allows for the efficient processing of the toughest materials and exceptionally high metal removal rates.

Shrink-fit tool holders extend carbide tool life and reduced tooling costs

MST Shrink-Fit Tool Holders grip a carbide cutting tool firmly and accurately, reducing vibration, which means higher feed rates can be achieved and manufacturing times are reduced. Tool life is also enhanced and extended because of the accuracy and rigidity of the amalgamation of cutting tool and tool holder.
