Family Overview
A family of tools designed for working in small bores. These tools are made for the high-tech, medical & small components industries. They can be used in machining centers, or with conventional machines. All tools include through-coolant, enabling the cooling fluid to reach the cutting edge efficiently.
Features:
- Supports diameters as small as 1.0 mm (for some tools)
- The through-coolant aids in chip removal, helping to achieve a smooth cutting action
- Most turning applications supported (thread turning, grooving, profiling, boring, and more)
- Variants for both right-hand and left-hand jobs available
The following product lines can be used for drilling:
New
SUPERCUT SOLID CARBIDE MSD DRILLS
A range of high-precision, high-performance solid carbide drills, for a wide range of applications and materials. These drills can be used on all types of CNC lathes (including Swiss), and with all standard Tiny Tools holder product lines. They are suitable for both small part and general purpose machining.
These tools feature a reinforced cutting edge geometry for smooth cutting, and high edge stability. The fine surface finish aids with chip evacuation. The back adjusting screw (stopper) of the holders allows for precise control of tool overhang, and provides support during cutting operation.
Feature(s):
- Can be used for countersinking and chamfering of an existing hole
- Engineered to minimize tool run out and deflection
- Capable of drilling holes with depth up to 5xDC
- Excellent solution for hole preparation before using tools from the Tiny Tools or Mill-Thread families
Carbide Grade(s):
BAR HOLDERS
The basic line of bar holders for bars from the Tiny Tools family.
Features:
- Compatible with all currently existing Tiny bars (diameters from 3.0 mm to 10.0 mm)
BAR HOLDERS (WITH FRONT COOLANT ATTACHMENT)
These bar holders provide a modest variation over the basic bar holders, by offering a slightly different geometry, as well as adding a coolant attachment in the front of the holder.
Features:
- Compatible with bars with diameters from 3.0 mm to 8.0 mm
BAR HOLDERS FOR STAR SWISS MACHINES
External turning holders for bars from the Tiny Tools family; Specially designed for operations on Swiss-type CNC lathes by Star® Micronics. The Tiny bar can be gripped in two directions, allowing for a turning operation on both X and Y axis.
Features:
- Designed with internal coolant to the cutting edge
- Coated holders provide abrasion resistance
- Compatible with bars with diameters from 3.0 mm to 10.0 mm
CIM - FAST CLAMPING SYSTEM
The innovative CIM clamping system provides high precision and repeatability, as well as a fast and simple way to change the Tiny Tools bar – without removing the CIM holder, or engaging in additional tool setup. It includes an internal tool indexing mechanism which indexes the tool in the correct position, as well as strong and rigid collet clamping for high stability.
For additional information. you can view a diagram of the clamping system, or read the instructions for use (IFU).
Features:
- No screws required
- Internal coolant through the CIM holder and the Tiny Tools bar to the cutting edge
- Holders with 3 clamping flats on the shank for maximum flexibility
- Compatible with bars with diameters from 4.0 mm to 6.0 mm
SQUARE SHANK HOLDERS (VERTICAL)
A product line of bar holders with square shanks; To be used where such a shank is required (typically: Automatic/Swiss-type machines, etc.). These holders were designed to be used with a vertical lathe.
Features:
- Compatible with bars with diameters from 3.0 mm to 6.0 mm
SQUARE SHANK HOLDERS (RIGHT-HAND)
A product line of bar holders with square shanks; To be used where such a shank is required (typically: Automatic/Swiss-type machines, etc.). These holders were developed for right-hand machining.
Features:
- Compatible with bars with diameters from 3.0 mm to 6.0 mm
SQUARE SHANK HOLDERS (WITH KNEE)
A product line of bar holders with square shanks; To be used where such a shank is required (typically: Automatic/Swiss-type machines, etc.). This variant comes in a “knee” form.
Features:
- Compatible with bars with diameters from 3.0 mm to 6.0 mm
