SYNCHRONOUS TAPPING HOLDER IMPROVES THREAD QUALITY, TAP LIFE
BIG Kaiser Precision Tooling Inc. (Elk Grove Village, IL ) introduced a new holder for synchronous tapping. The Mega Synchro tapping holder compensates for synchronization error during rigid tapping by reducing the thrust load to both the tap and work piece by up to 90 percent, which improves thread quality and tap life.
The error compensation is facilitated through a unique mechanism, which absorbs the pitch difference between the tap and synchronous spindle. The Mega Synchro is capable of supplying coolant through slits to the tap periphery as well as through the tap.
Mega Synchro is available in a variety of lengths and spindle interfaces to suit any company?s needs. 41 tool bodies and 45 standard tap adapters offer a wide range of tooling configurations. BIG Kaiser offers a complete line of tool holder styles to fit every application and spindle type, including BIG-PLUS, HSK and Capto.
