Nikken are delighted to be able to include spindle optimisation products from Alberti within their exhaustive range of NC Tooling products. Two types are available; Turboflex and Slimline. The Turboflex range The Turboflex range draws its drive from an air supply fed from the stopper block mounted on the machine spindle. The stopper block, not only guarantees the positive positioning of the speeder for automatic tool changing, but also features an air valve which negates the requirement for an M-Code from the machine to activate and de-activate the unit.

In some cases, because of the mechanical drive, micro sizes and capabilities are achievable.
