Solutions Feed adjustment is strongly recommended.

  • (Use fully synchronous feed system and fixing holder)

When using machines that do not have the synchronous feed system, such as drilling machine.

  • Adjust the correct weight balance of main spindle

properly.

  • Use an axial/radial floating holder for adjustment.
