HSK TURNING TOOLS

HSK tool series leading the way forward

HSK-T System (ICTM standard)

HSK-T is a new HSK system designed for turning on multi-task machines that are compatible with HSK-A type (ISO standard: ISO12164-1:2001).It was jointly developed by a consortium of Japanese manufacturers and is now used worldwide as the ICTM standard.Presently ISO standardization of the HSK-T system is under deliberation.

High accuracy cutting edge positioning

The HSK-T type has a closer tolerance between the spindle key and tool holder keyway than the HSK-A type. This results in higher cutting edge positional accuracies. For milling, the conventional HSK-A type tools can be still used.

Compatible with both multi-task machines and machining centres

Improved keyway tolerance

Straight type tools suitable for use on multi-task machines

Avoid workpiece interference with improved tool accessibility.

By tilting the machines B spindle (main axis of the tool) at 45 deg. interference between the spindle, holder, workpiece and chuck can be avoided.

Improve centreline height by positioning the cutting edge at the centre of the spindle.

Increased stability and accuracy can be achieved because the cutting edge centreline height is not affected by the gap between the spindle and the key.

New one-action type double clamp series

The double clamp mechanism offers high rigidity, accuracy, reliability that ensures secure insert clamping. Therefore making it suitable for turning of difficult to machine materials such as stainless and heat resistant alloys.

3 on 1 tool for process and tool consolidation

3 turning inserts of the same geometry can be installed on a single tool.

New HSK-T100 size for large workpieces

Larger tool holder sizes for high efficiency machining.
