Vertical Tapping Arm

Features

Applications

·Tapping in all types of materials.
·Drill - soft materials, 5/16" & smaller.
·Chamfer & deburr holes.
·STI insertion.

Benefits

·Allow the operator to move the tap to the work, which makes use of the bearings at all swivel points instead of placing a part under a spindle.
·Tapping cycle starts at the correct speed and can go directly to reverse when the desired depth is reached, allowing acceleration and deceleration to be restricted.
·Tap adapter floats in the machine, which allows the tap to precisely follow the hole without any effect from the spindle. Because of this float, holes tapped with u-tap are typically less than a quarter turn on a No-Go Gage.
·With the use of adjustable clutch style tap adapters, the clutch built into the adapter clicks when the tap bottoms, hits an interference or begins to dull. This diminishes broken taps by notifying the operator to reverse the motor or simply change to a new tap.
