BIG Kaiser Precision Tooling Offers New Line
Of Tekusa HSK External Taper Cleaners
 
ELK GROVE VILLAGE, IL—BIG Kaiser Precision Tooling now offers a line of Tekusa HSK External Taper Cleaners for cleaning the outside of HSK-63 tapers. The new external taper cleaners complement Tekusa’s line of internal spindle cleaners for efficient cleaning of HSK tool holders.
 
Tekusa HSK-63's cleaning strips will maintain contact with the taper core due to inset location even when using heavy pressure to remove chips, coolant and oil. Cleaning strips are spaced at intervals to remove even large residual particles.
 
Two models of Tekusa’s HSK External Cleaner for HSK-63 are available to suit user preference, one with a handy cap and the other with a polygon handle.
 
Tekusa spindle and taper cleaners provide an easy way to assure the cleanliness of the tool taper and spindle interface, an often overlooked requirement for precision and repeatability.
 
Tekusa spindle cleaners are available for all tapered spindles. On the HSK spindle, they will clean taper and face of the spindle at the same time.
 
“Regular removal of the chips, coolant, grease and grime that can collect in a spindle will give better seating precision and help to maintain spindles. Every spindle should have one. You will lose repeatability if you don’t have a clean spindle,” says Tim Grosch, BIG Kaiser’s product manager for the Tekusa line.
 
When performance repeatability is a problem with precision modular tooling, the first thing BIG Kaiser service personnel check is the cleanliness of the spindle. Often they need to look no further, to the occasional embarrassment of a customer who may have requested a service call.
 
Grosch suggests cleaning the spindle when changing out a part, at the beginning or end of a shift, or before presetting.
 

Tekusa spindle and taper cleaners are constructed for high oil and grease resistance. The new HSK External Taper Cleaners feature a plastic injection molded core with fluted location for cleaning strips to ensure accurate sizing and cleaning efficiency.
