COLLETS
The standard Modela MDX-3 spindle takes tools of 6mm shank diameter. TechSoft have designed an alternative spindle which takes 3.17mm (1/8 inch) diameter tooling. This system also has the advantage of using a top collet which can be used as a depth stop, thus allowing much easier tool interchange. (One spindle adaptor and one top collet were supplied free with each machine.) Extra collets and spindle adaptors are available as follows:
| TA-MOD-SPIND |
Spindle adaptor for 3.17mm tools |
16.00 |
|
| TA-MOD-COLLET |
Upper collets to fit 3.17mm tools (pk of 2) |
13.00 |

The Modela MDX-3 uses exactly the same 3.17mm (1/8 inch) shank tools as the CAMM 2 PNC-2000/2100/2200. |
