The optimal clamping tool for every application
On using tools, their connection to the machine spindle, and therefore the clamping technology, plays a central role that is often undervalued.
On fine machining parts, very good results can be achieved with the highest radial run-out accuracies. The effect is very significant even on drilling or milling, as lower radial variations have a positive effect on tool lives.

Manufactured with the latest technology, the clamping technology programme from MAPAL offers the perfect solution for every application and a connection that ensures the tool has the necessary performance, radial run-out and changeover accuracy in use. From the manual HSK clamping units with the MAPAL KS clamping cartridge, through clamping tools with flange module, hydraulic and shrinking technology to adapters, the MAPAL standard programme covers a wide variety of systems and technologies. MAPAL offers a comprehensive range of standard programme also for machining with minimum quantity lubrication MQL.
Broad standard programme of MQL clamping tools
An important role for a stable MQL process is played by the related chuck so that the lubricating medium is reliably transported to the cutting edge. MAPAL offers clamping tools for the 1-channel system and also for the 2-channel system. From shrink chucks of short and long design, through hydraulic chucks with axial or radial length adjustment, to the HighTorque Chuck (HTC). The advantages of the HTC are above all extremely high torque transmission for high-power milling and extremely good thermal stability. This aspect is particularly important, as during MQL machining relatively high temperatures reach the chuck via the tool shank.
