Tool-Holding Adapters for Cnc Tooling

摘要

I had owned my KX3 CNC milling machine for some months and the number of '3 Morse tool-holders was starting to proliferate -I had been warned this would happen but it had not really registered. I calculated how many adapters I would use - nearly fainted - and bought 5 metres of 30mm free-cutting steel bar. The bar is much cheaper if bought in a whole length and cut at home, the stockholder kindly cut the bar in half to get it in my car without charge! If you have very deep pockets the supplier may cut all the little billets for you on a CNC band-saw. Always ask if the stockholder has a lot of off-cuts in the size you want - they are always relieved to get rid of them, and don't charge for original cutting and may make a small discount on the purchase.
