Protecting operators from wobbly toolholders
JM Performance Products’ Clamp Force Gage provides shops with a quick and inexpensive method to check the clamping/pulling force of spindle drawbars. The hydraulic gage instantly reads in ft./lbs. the amount of pull force being applied to the toolholder. Once the drawbar force drops below 80 percent of the original manufacturer’s setting, it’s time to schedule maintenance.
