INTRODUCTION GYRO - Radial and Angular Alignment Toolholder Adjustable Toolholder for Easy Adjustment of Radial and Angular Misalignment T.I.R. max. 0.02 Application Gyro is a rugged and adjustable toolholder developed by ISCAR/ETM to solve drilling, tapping and reaming problems encountered on CNC and turret lathes. Its unique design allows smooth and easy adjustment of radial and angular misalignment between chuck and turret. Angular Adj. 1º TOOLING SYSTEMS Gyro reduces total machining time by making it possible to complete machining of holes in one drilling step and to achieve tolerances as close as 0.01 mm, thereby Radial Adj. D2.0 eliminating subsequent boring or reaming operations. • A breakthrough in drilling technology for CNC lathes • Dramatic increase in tool performance at reduced cost Features • Enables high precision drilling to a close tolerance of h6, to be performed as a final boring operation on CNC lathes • Reduces machining time by completing the bore in one drilling step, eliminating secondary turning and boring operations • Prolongs cutting tool life tenfold and more, especially for high performance HSS, solid and brazed carbide drills, center drills, taps and reamers • Dramatic increase in speed and feed by up to 300%. • Coolant supply through the shank center of the tool shoulder for oil hole cutting tools 1. Radial adjustment screw Advantages 2. Clamping screw • Easy adjustment for correcting misalignment between 3. Angular set ring chuck and turret axis (drill and workpiece) 4. Front part • Precise and efficient tool clamping with ER collets 5. Alignment test bar and ER sealed Coolit Jet collets 6. Test bushing • Quick functional adjustment is made on machine 7. ER nut by using ISCAR/ETM plug and ring gauge kit 8. Coolant connection Operation For operation instructions see the brochure packed with the tool. Notes • Coolant supply should be minimum 10 bar and maximum 80 bar for small diameter oil hole drills ranging from 3-20 A soft material bar should be used to test the bar diameter mm. (the normal machine pressure of 4 bar is insufficient). for the alignment procedure. • Coolant filtration is most important to eliminate chips from blocking the drill oil hole. • To ensure maximum performance of the GYRO, the backlash of the turret indexing and support axis mechanism should be checked and readjusted according to the machine standard. Test bar First time users should buy a GYRO kit which includes a test bar and a bushing for performing the alignment procedure. Alignment bushing See pages 934-936 842 842 ISCAR ISCAR
