Product Overview

ER COLLETS RUNOUT TOLERANCE

 

DIN ISO 15488 specifies the dimensions, materials and manufacturing requirements, and designation of collets (of form A or of form B) for tools with cylindrical shanks and their corresponding holders and nuts. All Haas ER collets are manufactured to meet or exceed these requirements.

 

  • Form A: 6 to 8 slots.
  • Form B: 12 to 16 slots.

 

This International Standard also specifies collet runout tolerances. These tolerances are checked as is shown in the figure below, by the introduction of a test mandrel into the collet. The diameter of the test mandrel is the nominal diameter of the collet.

For the test mandrel, the following specifications apply:


a) diameter tolerance: h6;
b) cylindricity: 0.002mm;
c) parallelism: 0.002mm;
d) roundness: 0.002mm;
e) surface without longitudinal marks;
f) maximum surface roughness Rz = 4µm;
g) surface hardness: (58 +3/-0) HRC.

a. Normal Style collets are designed with runout tolerance class 2. If class 1 is required, it shall be given separately.

b. In the case of applications where runout tolerances class 1 are required, the accuracy of the whole system (machine tool spindle, holder, collet and tool) shall be observed. 

ER Collets

  • Collets are available individually or in kits
  • Collet series is determined by the toolholder ER-taper size (11, 16, 20, 25, 32, 40)
  • Collet bore diameter is determined by the cutting tool shank diameter
  • ER Straight-Bore Collets – Features

     

    NOTE: These collets have a clamping range. Use the tightest collet available for any given tool shank, to provide the greatest tool-to-collet contact area while minimizing runout. 
    In the case of a Ø12.2 mm tool, do not use a Ø12–11 mm collet. Instead, use a Ø12.5–11.5 mm collet. For general cutting applications, a Ø13–12 mm collet is usable.

     

    • Can be used to hold any type of round shank tool
    • Flexibility to clamp a wide range of tool shanks
    • High accuracy and concentricity

     

    Clamping Range:

     

    ER8:     0.5 – 5mm
                 0.012 – 0.187"

    ER11:   0.5 – 8mm
                 0.043 – 0.281"

    ER16:   0.5 – 10mm
                 0.043 – 0.375”

    ER20:   0.5 – 12mm
                 0.043 – 0.5”

    ER25:   1 – 16mm
                 0.086 – 0.625”

    ER32:   2 – 20mm
                 0.086 – 0.781”

    ER40:   2 – 26mm
                 0.086 – 1”

    ER Sealed Collets – Features

    NOTE: Collet bore is the exact diameter of the tool shank. These collets have no clamping range. 

     

    • Fits all Haas ER collet chuck holders
    • Ensures 100% of through-tool/spindle coolant gets to the tip of the cutting tool
    • Approved for high-pressure coolant to 1100 psi
    • Short rear collet slots provide a mechanical seal, blocking coolant flow
    • Mechanical seal design is superior to silicone/rubber sealed collets
    • Do not require a coolant ring or special ER nut
    • To seal properly, the entire tool shank must be in the collet and cover all slots

    ER Tap Collets – Features

    NOTE: Collet bore is the exact diameter of the tool shank. These collets have no clamping range.

     

    • Collet bore is the exact tool diameter, with a square drive
    • Special design locks flat-sided tap shanks into the collet
    • Provides maximum concentricity, with positive driving force
    • Reduces tapping clearance requirements
