The solution to STAR CNC Lathe Travel Limitations: Why the 15mm Wedge Type Overhang Tool Holder Is a Must-Have Upgrade?
When operating high-precision STAR CNC sliding headstock lathes such as SB20, SR20R, or SR32J, you may encounter a frustrating issue: The cutting tool simply cannot reach the workpiece because the gang tool post’s travel stroke is insufficient. This problem not only limits your machining capability but can also lead to lose important business opportunities when you are unable to take on certain jobs.
Our 15mm Wedge Type Overhang Tool Holder, also known as a tool holder riser block, is specially designed to overcome these travel limitations in CNC machining. It effectively extends the tool’s operating range without compromising the cutting precision in the highest standard and the tool holders’ rigidity.
1. Core Value: Extend the Travel Limitation of the Machine, Unlock the New Machining Capabilities
Have you ever been forced to reject the jobs because your machine simply couldn’t reach a certain cutting position? This is a common challenge faced by many precision machining workshops.
Traditionally, the gang tool post travel distance determines the maximum machining range. However, this overhang tool holder block changes the rules of the game:
- Extend Machining Range: Precisely designed with a 15mm offset height, the wedge-type riser moves the cutting tool forward, bridging the gap caused by limited travel. The riser ensures the tool can accurately reach positions previously inaccessible.
- Handle Complex & Long Workpiece Machining: Ideal for long-size workpiece, complex multi-process machining, or any job that exceeds standard stroke limits. The riser can fully release your STAR CNC lathe’s potential to take on more diverse and profitable work.
2. Top-Notch Craftsmanship: The Combination of Precision & Rigidity
You might wonder: Does extending the tool affect stability or accuracy of machining? We quite understand this concern. That’s why our design prioritizes both precision alignment and maximum rigidity.
- Perfect Center Alignment: The one-piece integrated design is manufactured to fit the exact STAR machine’s specifications, eliminating the need for manual adjustments or shimming. This guarantees optimal cutting conditions in every usage, resulting in consistent workpiece accuracy and superior surface finish.
- Reinforced the Rigidity of Tool Holder While Cutting: Built from high-strength alloy steel, provides rock-solid support from the base. This will effectively absorbs the vibrations generated by cutting, and greatly enhances the stability while cutting. The enhanced rigidity not only prolongs tool’s life span, but also maintains exceptional machining quality even at high feed rates.
3. Seamless STAR Machine Upgrade and Compatibility
This tool holder riser is purpose-built for STAR SB20, SR20R, SR32J, and similar models. Every screw hole and the details of design matches Genuine specifications, ensuring hassle-free installation and a perfect fit. Upgrade your machine effortlessly and start production immediately—no extra modifications required.
