About the Tormach Tooling System
The Tormach Tooling System® (TTS)
brings new and unexpected features
to the classic R8 and Morse taper
spindles. Imagine a full line of
low cost tool holders that can provide:
- Quicker Tool Changes
- Improved Rigidity
- Better Height Repeatability
- Reduced Clearance Requirements
- Easy Off-Line Height Measurement
All of this is provided without any modification to to the spindle taper or expensive adaptors to install. Inspired by the dual contact geometry used in the latest generation of high end machining spindles (HSK, Big Plus, and others), TTS tool holders reference both the spindle taper and the spindle face. The unique shape provides a wider base, giving the tool holder a more rigid connection to the machine spindle.
Tormach Tooling System with CNC
The high cost of tooling is one of the barriers to truly affordable CNC. The Tormach Tooling System changes all that. TTS combines the PCNC 1100, or any small CNC using an R8 or MT3 taper. Like other Tormach products, TTS allow you to make what you need easier, quicker, and more affordably.
Measuring the tools before you mount them on the machine is easier and quicker than tool touch off on the machine. TTS geometry makes off line measurement easy and accurate.
