GTI / GTIN - Tapping Attachment

Description: Short tap chucks for ER collets. Application: Axial float/tension/compression type for CNC milling machines and lathes with reversing motors and rigid tapping. Features:

  • Compensates for machine feed and tap pitch variance

Operation Floating mechanism compensates for For through- and blind-hole tapping: misalignment between tap and workpiece

  • Right- and left-hand tapping

1 Enter feed rate according to thread pitch (or 1-2 % lower). Set spindle to starting point with 0.08 mm clearance. Advantages:

  • Practical and efficient tap holding by the ER

1 spring collet without using jaw drive

  • Compact design for minimal clearance applications
  • Heavy duty design for high torque drive ensures the same accuracy as the tap itself

2 Start spindle forward with right hand rotation until reaching desired depth. 2
