SCHUNK’s TENDO E compact
hydraulic expansion toolhold
ers can reportedly transfer
torques of up to 900 Nm (at a
20mm clamping diameter)
safely and are perfect for vol
ume cutting under dry clamp
ing conditions.
Even in case of oily tool
shanks, the torques amount to
520 Nm, compared with con
ventional hydraulic expansion
toolholders, Schunk claims.
This capability over the compa
ny’s previous compact models
hike performance by around
60%, the company says.
The TENDO E can be used
for rough machining, finish
machining, drilling and ream
ing, making it a multi-purpose
toolholder. It is also said to
provide safe and precise
tool clamping when milling
with grooves.
