According to REGO-FIX, powRgrip uses a toolholder and collet that deliver extremely high clamping forces equal to or greater than shrink-fit style holders. Designed with easy operation and functionality, the system takes less than 10 sec. to press in a tool or remove it from the holder.
By avoiding the use of processes relying on high-levels of heat, powRgrip allows tools to be handled safely and immediately after a tool change. Unlike other clamping systems, where heat or hydraulics are used to expand the material, the system uses mechanical properties of the holder material to generate tremendous gripping force with run-out below 0.0001 in.
REGO-FIX will also highlight its most recent innovation, the Zero-Z short toolholder. Named for its machining capabilities, the flexible Zero-Z features a short projection, allowing for more z-axis stroke and greater work piece size. The toolholder's unique design features a flush collet nut, whereby tool overhang is virtually eliminated.
