1.1 Application range, determined use
The quick-change tap holder type Softsynchro
®
6 are used on CNC machining
centres with synchronous control. They are intended for clamping of taps/cold-
forming taps for thread production.
The integrated minimal length compensation on tension and compression
compensates arising minimal pitch differences between synchronous spindle and
tap/cold-forming tap which would lead to high thread flank friction forces. An eventual
increase of the axial force during the thread producing cycle is reduced to a
minimum. The resulting advantages are:
-
No mis-cutting of the threads
-
Optimised tap/cold-forming tap life
Normally the quick-change tap holders type Softsynchro
®
6 are equipped with one of
the following shanks:
Hollow taper shank according to DIN 69893-HSK-A
Taper shank according to DIN 69871 AD or B
The cutting range of each type is indicated in table 1, page 6.
The quick-change tap holders type Softsynchro
®
6 are suitable for coolant pressures
up to 50 bar.
The clamping of the tap/cold-forming tap is locked via quick-change adapters of type
HE 2-IKZ(Z). The quick-change adapters must be chosen depending on the used
tap/cold-forming tap, please see table 1, page 6
The non-determined use exempts the manufacturer from any liability.
