Machine faster, achieve better surface finish, and drive cost per part down – all with nothing more than an Allen key to set up.

Schunk’s hydraulic tool holders extend carbide life by up to 40%, deliver 3-micron runout, and dampen vibration in ways that most tool holders simply can’t. Tom Skubala of MTDCNC and Marcel Machado of Schunk Intec GB explore the full range from the Slim 4ax shrink-profile hydraulic holder to a brand new anti-slip sleeve that brings Weldon slot security to hydraulic tool holding for the very first time.

Carbide prices are soaring, so the answer might not be better carbide, it might be a better tool holder.
