Drawbar Grippers and Fingers are essential components in CNC machining centers, designed to securely hold the retention knob (pull stud) of a toolholder during high-speed and high-precision operations, ensuring stable tool clamping and reliable automatic tool changes (ATC).
Specification
- Interfaces: BT Series (BT30/40/50), CAT Series (CAT30/40/50), ISO/DIN Toolholders, HSK and Capto (custom grippers available)
- Design Types: 3-Finger and 4-Finger Gripper Assemblies, fixed-angle types (90 degrees, 45 degrees), spring-loaded grippers, carbide-reinforced finger tips
- Materials: alloy steel, hardened tool steel, surface-treated finishes for durability
Product Content
Drawbar Grippers function as the mechanical interface between the drawbar and the toolholder, closing around the retention knob and pulling it into the spindle taper with strong, consistent force. Each gripper assembly is engineered for a specific toolholder type and angle, ensuring optimal engagement and retention force.
