BT30 locking tool holder Why this tool holder matters Keeps tools firmly seated during high-speed machining and automatic tool changes, reducing the risk of tool slip and scrap. Cuts tool-change time with a CNC locking mechanism and integrated unloading design that lets you remove or swap tools without removing the holder from the spindle. Improves accuracy and surface finish by minimizing runout and providing repeatable seating every change. Key benefits Secure retention: CNC locking function ensures positive clamping force for reliable tool holding during heavy cuts and rapid indexing. Faster, simpler tool changes: integrated unloading design streamlines loading and unloading cycles at the machine spindle, reducing downtime. Consistent accuracy: precision ground and hardened construction delivers low runout and repeatable seating for tighter tolerances. Long service life: made from high-strength alloy steel for durability in continuous production environments. Compact fit: slim profile is compatible with tight tool changer slots, maximizing usable capacity in automatic tool changers. Features Standard BT30 taper for broad compatibility with common milling and drilling tooling. Precision ground and hardened body to maintain concentricity and resist wear. Rigid clamping and minimized runout to improve part quality and tooling life. Designed to support standard BT30 shank tooling, including end mills and carbide tools. Integrated unloading mechanism allows tool removal without withdrawing the holder from the spindle. Practical applications CNC milling centers: rapid pocketing, contouring, and finishing where frequent, reliable tool changes are required. Automated tool changer cells: quick, repeatable swaps in high-throughput operations to reduce cycle time and maintain consistency. High-mix production: secure retention during variable operations and easy removal during loading/unloading cycles to keep changeovers efficient. Compatibility and sizing BT30 taper standard: fits machines and tool changers that accept BT30 tooling. Compact profile suitable for tight tool changer slots while supporting standard BT30 shank tools. What you get A durable, precision BT30 locking tool holder that improves retention, reduces changeover time, and delivers repeatable accuracy for milling and drilling operations.
