Capto tooling choices

[Tim Johnson]

I am looking for more choices for Capto tooling than what Sandvik has to offer. I found Techniks 6" long er16 collet chucks which is one holder I'm looking for but er16 is their largest collet choice. Are there other manufacturers that would have a greater variety of holders?

Haimer and Rego-Fix

excellent tools , eye watering prices

Big Kaiser also

Thanks guys. It appears that Haimer has the better choices for er collets. I didn't find anything on the Lyndex site. Rego-fix has a 400mm er16 lmao.

I mentioned the reach to our production foreman and he immediately thought of a casting that we're currently running on our 500mm horizontals that we could then run on our 800mm machine and that 400mm would be about the perfect length and we could run 6 parts per pallet vs. 2 parts. But if I'm going to spend Rego-fix money for three holders on one part ( 60~80 every three months) I would rather spend that cash on Iscar's CLICKFIT and have more diameter, length and tooling choices.
