NSK Nakanishi, manufacturers of high precision, high speed motors and spindles in conjunction with Alberti of Italy a leading manufacturer of tooling have introduced a high speed ATC tooling solution for the Fanuc Robodrill range of vertical machining centres.

On display at MACH, the BT30 holder incorporates a Nakanishi 60,000rpm air motor and spindle with a collet capability of 3.175mm diameter and is suitable for small hole drilling and milling operations.There is also a right angle unit available which is capable of delivering a tool speed of 20,000rpm for machining features or hole drilling in the vertical faces of components.

Filtered lubricated air is supplied to the tool holder via a stop block arrangement specially designed to fit onto the Robodrill spindle column utilising an existing retaining feature and rendering the installation of the whole system a relatively simple process.
