Correct holding force is critical for the HSK tool holder to spindle interface. Make sure it is correct with the ForceCheck gauge.

Spindle Runout Test Arbors

Verify that machine spindle runout meets required tolerances after a crash, when moving a machine, or as part of a preventative maintenance program.

Spindle Balancing Master Plugs

When balancing an HSK spindle, a balanced plug is a must. Transatlantic Connection stocks all common sizes.

Tool Holder and Spindle Dimensional Gauges

Transatlantic Connection carries all gauges required for manufacturing and verifying the difficult-to-measure critical dimensions on HSK tool holders and spindle tapers.

Tool Changer Grippers

The tool changer alignment gauge is used to check automatic tool changer positioning between the gripper arm, magazine, and the spindle. Improper alignment can result in abnormal wear on the spindle interface, tool changer, and tool holder.

Coolant Gauges

Ensure proper coolant flow rates, and measure the MQL (Minimum Quantity Lubrication) of your tool holder coolant system.
