ITI Tooling Co. offers a line of live-tool spindles to complement the high-speed, high-torque tool turrets on DMG MORI’s NL, NT, NZ and DuraTurn machines. These turrets use a high-performance tool drive and transmission driven by an integral direct-drive motor. The design of the ITI/Sauter live-tool spindle unit enhances these turret attributes with features such as precision-aligned surfaces for rapid setups and change-overs, precision bevel gear drives to reduce heat, noise and vibration, and pre-stressed spindle bearings for high-speed and high-torque cutting operations.
Many of these tool spindles offer a universal drive shaft for right- and left-hand use. In addition, they are designed with internal coolant ranging to 1,100 psi to help keep tools cool and rapidly clear chips from the work zone.
