Rego-Fix is partnering with Omega TMM to create the Orion tool measuring machine, which uses Rego-Fix’s PowRgrip toolholding system with Omega TMM’s presetting technology.
According to the companies, Orion was created based on customer requirements that demanded reliable and precise tooling with a simple-to-use and robust tooling system.
The Rego-Fix PowRgrip toolholding system creates heatless toolsetting in under 10 sec, according to the company. It uses a hydraulic press to insert specialized, shallow-tapered collets into toolholders with a matching taper. Its clamping force, vibration damping and precision, with toolholder-to-collet and collet-to-tool shank interfaces, can provide optimal accuracy and high-quality tooling from high-speed milling and drilling to coolant-free cutting.
