The invention relates to a method for assembling a tool system module, having a main body (G3C), which comprises a standard shank, such as a hollow-shank-taper (HSK) shank, and having a functional section (F5Y), such as a tool holder. In order to produce such tool system modules particularly economically, the functional section (F5Y) is paired with a main body (G3C) that is produced on separate production line, which is independent of the design or the production line of the functional section.

A tool chuck for clamping a tool in a machine tool, having a base body and a sleeve part protruding therefrom, which sleeve part forms a tool holder for fixing a tool shaft in a frictional, nonpositive fashion; a cavity in which a vibration damping component is accommodated is provided in the tool chuck.

An adjustable collet holder for use with a lathe is provided. The adjustable collet holder may include a set of hold down screws to hold it in place once adjusted. Adjustment may be achieved by adjusting multiple set screws to change both angular and concentricity orientations of a collet receiver relative to a body of the collet holder.

The present invention provides a rigid modular holding with axial and radial compensation for multiple and universal application of all machining processes, engineering, machine building, and construction fields where ever applicable for rotary and static systems. Design of modular holding includes male and female portions (401,301) of joining parts machined to the required shape and clearances to accommodate modular locking rigidly with face butting (407, 308). Radial and axial run out adjustments is controlled by the grub screws (307, 306) and run out compensation can be achieved within micron. An Area used for clamping and designed within the area of joining parts results reduction in material and processing cost. Since, the material is not protruding out from the surface of the joining parts, esthetically looks good and convenient for designing multiple applications as it is not possible at present.

A tool holder having a main body for coupling the tool holder to the spindle of a machine tool and having a damping surface connected thereto for clamping a tool, characterized in that the tool holder has at least one portion shaped in one piece by primary shaping, which in its interior has one or more cavities that form an enclave in the portion shaped by primary shaping.

A tool holder (1) includes a clamping member (4) for clamping and holding a tool (5), a holder body (2) having, at a leading end thereof, a receiving portion (25) for receiving the clamping member (4) along an axis (AX) and an operational member (N) for attaching the clamping member (4) to the holder body (2). The clamping member (4) clamps the tool (5) by an operation of the operational member (N). Vibration is applied to a contact portion (T) between the clamping member (4) and the holder body (2) when the clamping member (4) clamps the tool (5).

A spray nozzle assembly for a machining apparatus includes an outer ring extending from a first axial inlet end to a first axial outlet end. The outer ring contains a flow distribution section that extends inwardly from the ends of the first axial inlet towards the first axial outlet and terminating therebetween. The outer ring includes a diffuser section extending inwardly from the first axial outlet end towards and ends at the flow distribution section. The outer ring has a first interior area defined by a first interior surface which contains a diffuser surface aligned with the diffuser section and multiple flow passages formed within and aligned with the flow distribution section and overlaps into the diffuser surface, and at least one guide surface and an abutment surface; and an inner member extending into the first interior area.

A metal plate includes a machining subject surface. The metal plate includes a first holding portion designed to be held by a chuck and a second holding portion located at a position separated from the first holding portion and designed to be held by the chuck. The method for manufacturing the metal plate includes performing reference surface machining that machines a surface of the second holding portion that is to be held by the chuck into a predetermined shape in a state in which the first holding portion is held by the chuck. The method includes releasing the first holding portion from the chuck and holding the second holding portion with the chuck. The method also includes machining the machining subject surface in a state in which the second holding portion is held by the chuck.

A shrink fit adapter for a collet chuck has a rear holding area that can be mounted inside a collet chuck and a front receiving area for holding a tool shank. A through opening runs from a front face of the receiving area to a rear face of the holding area. A clamping area extends into the rear holding area. Here, the adapter is formed with a plurality of slots, which extend radially outward from the through opening and are distributed over the circumference. The slots are arranged in a central area of the through opening and the front ends of the slots are spaced apart from the front face of the receiving area.
