Parlec offers a range of power clamping options for the Series 1500 and 1800 TMM machines. These spindles improve measuring repeatability over non-clamped
or vacuum-clamped configurations. For critical, high-performance applications, the Parsetter 1500 and 1800 TMM can be outfitted with an HSK or Capto internal clamping spindle, which draws down the tool and
ensures optimal face contact with the toolholder and spindle face.

HSK spindles are assembled with a precision clamping unit manufactured by MAPAL and specified for optimum replication of the internal clamping function found in MAPAL’s machine tool clamping systems.
Capto
spindles utilize a Sandvik internal clamping system, co-designed by
Parlec and Sandvik engineers, and manufactured by Sandvik exclusively
for Parlec.
