New MICRO VC collet chucks: Precision meets innovation in micromachining
NIKKEN presents the new Micro VC holder, a ground-breaking solution for high-precision micromachining. This innovative range of tool holders has been specially developed for the latest generation of micro machine tools and high-speed spindles. The Micro VC holder sets new standards in terms of precision, balancing and efficiency for industries where perfection is paramount.
Compact but unexpectedly powerful: the future of micromachining
The Micro VC Holder is available in both monobloc and cylindrical shank versions, giving manufacturers more versatility and leading to greater accuracy and cost savings. In particular, it eliminates the need for costly, overlong cutting tools when a longer reach is required, significantly improving reliability in complex processes. Despite its small size, this tool holder is a real powerhouse in terms of stability, accessibility and efficiency.
Unsurpassed precision and performance
- HSK-E symmetrical shaft:The new Micro VC Holder is primarily designed around the symmetrical HSK-E tool holder shank. Unlike conventional HSK-A systems, the shape of the flange is optimized for high speeds and is completely symmetrical, with no driver slots, tool bore or control notch. This ensures excellent balancing and reduced vibrations at higher speeds
- Outstanding concentricity:The Micro VC Holder offers a minimum concentricity of 3μm at 4x diameter
- High speed: Designed for high-speed performance of up to 50.000 rpm
- NIKKEN 8-degree collet system: NIKKEN’s advanced 8-degree cone collet system provides excellent grip, superior accuracy and clamping force with lower tightening torque. This improves stability, reduces tool deflection and extends tool life
- Quick and easy loading
- Fast and optimal clearance: The compact nut design offers optimal clearance
Areas of application and advantages
The Micro VC Holder is ideal for applications that require the highest precision, such as the manufacture of intricate components for luxury watches or highly detailed medical instruments. It ensures flawless results and adherence to tight tolerances, which are essential for surgical tools and implants, for example.
- Increased productivity: By improving tool performance, manufacturers can increase their productivity
- Highest quality and surface finish: This is particularly important in high-volume medical production and the luxury goods industry
- Reduced tooling costs: Lower vibrations and reduced tool wear lead to longer tool life and lower replacement costs, which has a direct impact on profitability
- Availability and compatibility: The Micro VC Holder is compatible with HSK20E, HSK25E, HSK32E, HSK40E and HSK50E spindles. The range includes models with tapered shank (MVHT) for increased rigidity and parallel shank (MVH) for reduced interference
