KELCH KALI-tec A tool presetter

KELCH KALI-tec A tool presetter built in Germany in 2004 is a high-tech device for accurate measuring, presetting and simultaneous tool shrinking. The state-of-the-art KELCH tool presetter with integrated induction coil is offered with equipment that includes e.g. the electronic measuring system with intelligent image processing KELCH EasyVision and the KELCH Easy Webset computer software for tool measurement and inspection.

The tool length is determined by the setting adapters before the chuck heating phase. The KALI-tec A tool measuring and presetting machine then automatically sets the tool exactly to the target length during the chuck opening phase by heating, while for more complex measuring tasks or tools made of high-speed steel the KELCH i-tec shrink-fit device shrinks the tool to the target length using intelligent calculations and pre-positioning of the setting pins.
