Shrink fit chuck for maximum cutting performance in high performance cutting (HPC). The optimized design combines high rigidity with vibration damping, protecting the machine, spindle, and tool. Safe-Lock tool pull-out protection prevents the tool from being pulled out unintentionally. Increased cutting performance is achieved through higher speeds, higher feed rates, and greater cutting depth, resulting in shorter machining times. The chuck offers smoother running, which enhances surface quality and protects the tool, spindle, and machine. It features threaded holes for balancing with screws, lockable CoolJet holes, and a length adjustment screw with an adjustment range of 10 mm.
