 How to choose CNC tool holders for small CNC machine tools?
Manufacturing materialsFirst, it is necessary to select a suitable manufacturing material. The material for CNC tool holders must possess characteristics such as wear resistance, corrosion resistance, high hardness, high toughness, high temperature resistance, and high strength. These characteristics allow the CNC tool holder to successfully machine workpieces made of various materials.
Handle shapeThe selection of the CNC tool holder shape is very important. It must be well-suited to the CNC machine tool, fully utilize the geometric characteristics of the CNC system, and contribute to the quality of the machined workpiece. Furthermore, the shape of the tool holder also affects the cutting performance and the service life of the tool holder.
Cutting performanceCutting performance is one aspect to consider when selecting CNC tool holders. A good CNC tool holder should improve cutting efficiency and also be adaptable to the cutting requirements of different workpiece materials.

Stainless steel CNC tool holders: The quality choice for precision machining

Stainless steel CNC tool holders have been widely used in high-end manufacturing fields such as precision molds, automotive parts, and aerospace components. They are compatible with various mainstream CNC machine tools, providing impetus for the high-quality development of the industry.

Why have heat-shrink tool holders become the preferred choice for high-precision machining?

Thanks to their inherent characteristics of ultra-high precision, excellent dynamic balance, and exceptional rigidity, heat-shrink tool holders perfectly meet the demands of modern high-precision, high-efficiency, and high-speed machining.

Both BBT and HSK have double-sided grips, but which one is better?

There is no absolute "superiority" or "inferiority" between BBT and HSK as double-sided toolholders; the key is to match the machining requirements—choose HSK for high speed and high precision, and BBT for heavy-duty and stable cutting.

Backhand tool holder: Anti-interference in deep hole machining

The pullback toolholder solves the problems of loosening and precision issues in traditional toolholders with its mechanical anti-loosening structure and ultra-precision manufacturing, making it particularly suitable for deep cavity machining and high-speed precision milling.
