Shrink Fit System

Shrinking Technology High productivity – low costs – theKENNAMETAL HERTEL induction shrink systemThermo-Inductor • Table-top instrument, 610 x 610 mm, approx. weight 45kg • Fast, accurate heating by magnetic induction • 3 quick-change coils for diameter range4 to 32 mm • Processor-controlled, so no risk of tool damage due to overheating • Localised, uniform heating of the clamping area, avoiding the need to remove coding chip, coolant transfer unit, O-rings, etc. • Fast, accurate tool clamping and release • Heating-up phase < 10 seconds • Cooling-down phase < 60 seconds • Hot components are shielded in the cooling adaptor for extra operator safety • Suitable for carbide and steel shanks Shrink chucks • Slender shape • Balanced • Small centring bore – holding the tool in position before shrinking • • Weldon and Whistle Notch shanks can be clamped without any difficulty, but the best results are obtained with straight shanks with no clamping surfaces. Higher clamping forces than with any other known clamping system • Outstanding rigidity • Ideal for roughing and finishing • Ideal for high-speed machining • Axial adjustment with coolant supply • Over 5000 tool changes possible if used correctly.
