Elasticity without losing clamping strength

In machining processes, the secure clamping of tools such as drills, milling cutters, and taps is essential. This is achieved using a Collet, a small but precise device that, together with a Collet Holder, provides the necessary pressure to keep tools firmly in place during operation.
Collets can also be used to clamp workpieces directly. The most popular types are Elastic Collets, which offer excellent adaptability without sacrificing clamping power. Their elasticity ranges between 0.5 mm and 1 mm, ensuring versatility for different applications.
Depending on the geometry of the tool or workpiece, the clamping area inside the collet can be round, square, hexagonal, or even custom-shaped.
