DIN Standards Committee Tools and Clamping Devices

Overview

The International Standard ISO 12164-3:2014 has been prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 29 "Small tools", the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR (France), with the participation of the German experts of Working Committee NA 121-02-05 AA "Tool holders and machine/tool interface" at DIN Standards Committee "Tools and Clamping Devices" (FWS). This part of ISO 12164 specifies dimensions for hollow taper shanks with flange contact surface (HSK) to be applied to machine tools (such as turning machines, turning-mill machines). A range of shank sizes is specified. This part of ISO 12164 specifies the shank of type T. It incorporates a grooved flange to enable automatic tool exchange. The tools can also be exchanged manually via a hole in the shank taper. The torque is transmitted via the tail end of the shank through keys (positive-fit) as well as friction (force-fit).
