Exsys will display its dual-collet chuck line designed for use with CNC turning machines. The chucks double the amount of individual positions on a tool turret, increasing a machine’s tool-storage capacity and expanding tooling versatility for different workpieces. They are said to help reduce job setup times.
The company will also display its compact gear-hobbing system for horizontal turning centers and the Preci-Flex adapter system for lathe tooling change-overs.
