Product catalog summary

Overview

This document presents a comprehensive technical overview of the ALPS TOOL HSK Tooling System and associated tooling components designed for high-speed, high-precision machining centers. It covers tooling system components, detailed specifications, performance standards, and ordering information for milling chucks, collets, collet holders, tool holders, and arbors compatible with various HSK interfaces.

1. Tooling System Components

  • Milling Chucks (TR and TRX Types): High-rigidity, balanced chucks supporting two-face clamping with coolant-through capability (center and side) up to 7 MPa. Features include patented mechanisms for stable high-speed operation, clamp completion indicators, and thick-walled construction for heavy cutting.
  • Straight Collets (AS Type): Designed for small diameter straight shank tools used with TR-type chucks. Note: center-through coolant is disabled when these collets are used, and clamping force is reduced compared to direct chuck use.
  • Collet Holders (EXH Type): Slim, high-precision holders compatible with various collets (standard AR, coolant, tap collets). They support coolant pressures up to 20 MPa, enable easy tool changes without special nuts or seals, and comply with DIN6499/ISO15488 standards.
  • Accessories: Spanners, nuts, coolant tubes, and adjustment bolts are sold separately and must be ordered alongside holders and chucks.

2. Milling Chuck Features

  • Patented design ensures rigidity and accuracy at high rotational speeds.
  • Special slots allow simultaneous inner and outer coolant supply without additional options.
  • Clamp completion indicators improve reliability during tool attachment/detachment.
  • Uniform elastic deformation via special slits ensures stable runout accuracy (TIR 15μm at 4×D).
  • Supports coolant-through pressure up to 7 MPa.

3. Collet Holders (EXH Type) and Collets

  • EXH holders support coolant-through 16° taper collets with coolant pressure up to 7 MPa.
  • Compatible with AR collets (standard and coolant types), tap collets, and coolant tap collets.
  • AR collets conform to DIN6499/ISO15488 with runout accuracy classes: A (8 μm), AA (5 μm), AAA (3 μm, custom order).
  • AR coolant collets (AR/OH type) feature patented liquid-sealing slit design for high-pressure coolant (up to 20 MPa) with grasp ranges of 0.1–0.5 mm.
  • Proper tool insertion (fully from collet rear) is critical to maintain coolant sealing and prevent leakage.
  • Flat-face shank tools disable coolant sealing functionality.

4. Tap Collets and Milling Cutter Arbors

  • Tap collets (AR/GB and AR/GH types) secure tap shanks with square locks; coolant tap collets support high-pressure coolant (20 MPa).
  • Face milling cutter arbors comply with JIS B 4113 standard and support Sandvik T-MAX shoulder face mills, available with HSK-A63 and HSK-A100 shanks.
  • Side lock holders (Weldon shank) comply with DIN69882-4 standard for secure tool holding.

5. Specifications, Ordering, and Accessories

  • Most products are build-to-order; customers must confirm delivery times before ordering.
  • Accessories such as spanners, nuts, coolant ducts, and adjustment bolts are not included by default and require separate orders.
  • Dimensional tables provide detailed product codes, sizes, grasp ranges, nut diameters, and compatible collets for precise selection.
  • Manual clamp holes and custom options are available upon request.

6. Performance and Quality Standards

  • Runout accuracy for AR collets ranges from 3 μm (AAA class) to 8 μm (A class), enabling selection based on precision requirements.
  • Tooling components balance high-speed rotation, rigidity, gripping force, and coolant compatibility for demanding machining tasks.
  • Coolant pressures supported range from 7 MPa (standard coolant-through) to 20 MPa (high-pressure coolant collets).

7. Critical Usage Guidelines and Best Practices

  • Ensure full insertion of drills into coolant collets to maintain sealing and prevent leakage.
  • Use nominal collet sizes for intermediate tool diameters to guarantee proper grasp.
  • Confirm compatibility of collet holders with machine tool shank types and coolant requirements.
  • Specify runout accuracy class and coolant type (water-soluble or oil-based) when ordering coolant collets.
  • Order all necessary accessories together with holders and collets to ensure complete tooling setup.
  • Avoid using flat-face shank tools with coolant collets as sealing is compromised.

9. Technical Catalog Summary: Tool Holders and Arbors

  • Tool holders and arbors are designed for milling and drilling, compatible with HSK-A63 and HSK-A100 shanks per ISO12164-1.
  • Morse Taper holders (Type A) support drills with various taper sizes and lengths; build-to-order with confirmed lead times.
  • Face milling cutter arbors (Type A and C) comply with JIS B 4113, supporting Sandvik T-MAX cutters; include drive keys and clamp bolts.
  • Side lock holders (Weldon shank) comply with DIN69882-4 for secure clamping.
  • All products require advance ordering and confirmation of delivery schedules.
