IMP Issue 4-18-24

Belleville springs provide the only force that holds tools in the spindle while cutting, and they are often the first to wear out on a CNC Machining Center.

Drawbars can have over 140 Belleville springs in the stack. Just the slightest wear, or one broken spring will have a huge effect on clamping force, causing chatter, bad finishes, reduced cutter life, and scrapped parts.

A typical drawbar assembly.

Left unchecked, a tool may eventually pull out of th spindle during a cut and damage the spindle, cutter, arbor, and fixture.

Machines are never the same after a crash.

Problems with repeatability, bad finishes, and short cutter life can be frustrating and difficult to diagnose. Up in the spindle and out of sight, drawbars seldom get the attention they deserve. To check it requires a special tool designed just for that purpose. Previously these tools cost many thousands of dollars, but now you can check your spindle for a fraction of that cost.

The Clamprite Gage simulates a tool in the spindle, and checks the drawbar in less than a minute. It has no batteries, clumsy cables, or delicate electronics to burn out. The pressure gauge reads directly in pounds/force, so there are no conversions or calculations to perform.

Thousands of shops in the U.S. and around the world use the Clamprite Gage. Customers often say it paid for itself the first time they used it.

Find out if your drawbar can still Clamprite!

HSK Spindle Adapters

CG10K

Clamprite Gage Kits provide the most economical method of checking the drawbar force of your machine. Kits are furnished in a foam fitted metal tool box and includes the gage head, a spindle adapter, and an internal transfer screw coupling (not shown) that accepts all pull studs.

The universal gage head accepts all sizes and types of spindle adapters, incl. CAT, BT, ISO, HSK, CAPTO, and others. Select your kit by spindle type and maximum drawbar force you will be testing. Additional adapters sold separately.
