Smooth Machining of Difficult to Access Areas

The slim design of TRIBOS-SVL toolholder extensions by SCHUNK Inc. (Morrisville, NC) allows precise and smooth machining of workpiece areas that are difficult to access. In spite of the slim design, these extensions are robust and permit a run-out accuracy of less than 0.003 mm. They can be combined with a  variety of toolholders, such as TENDO hydraulic expansion toolholders, CELSIO heat shrink toolholders, with collet toolholders and with TRIBOS toolholders.

These extensions, in connection with TENDO hydraulic expansion toolholders or the TRIBOS-R polygonal toolholders, complement each other in an ideal manner. Both systems have a vibration damping effect on the overall system. The extensions have a wide range of clamping diameters and are available in metric from 0.3 mm to 20 mm and from 1/8 in to 3/4 in.
