Collet tool holder VC series

NIKKEN's VC Holder is effectively a hybrid solution more specifically developed for milling processes. As such some of features and design advantages of two existing products, namely the Slim Chuck and the Mini-Mini chuck, have been incorporated and combined into what has become the enhanced VC Holder. If two of the key characteristics experienced during any milling process are taken into account then the technology integrated in to the design and construction of our VC Holder becomes more clear. These relate to: Increased cutting force and load, so, speed, feed and depth of cut, process, material e.t.c. Milling introduces heavier loading and demands from the cutting tool. The milling process applies the load on to the side of tool rather than the front as experienced with a drilling process. To provide the improved performance required from the conditions above the NIKKEN VC Holder utilises three key construction differences when compared to the standard Slim chuck: Increased wall thickness and tapered cross section applied to the tool holder body (thicker and more rigid). Larger contact area between collet shoulder face and TiN bearing clamping nut (improved clamping). Extended length collet with a precise ‘pilot’ location diameter as also adopted by the NIKKEN Mini-Mini Chuck (optimum side load capabilities).
