ER32 Collet on Unimat


 

Does anyone here on this group have any pictures of an ER32 collet mounted on a Unimat spindle?
The ER32 collet is rather large and I would like to see a complete setup.
Carl has said he uses his ?ER32 collets on his Unimat.
A picture of the spindle adapter is what I would like to see.
Thanks, Dick

Carl,
Thanks for posting your ER32 collet pictures.
Now as long as I have the full set of collets I will adapt my Unimat to suit.

That's got some stick-out on it, but I don't believe it's much worse than the ER25 chuck I built. Looks like it was dialed in very well, too. Mine hasn't been tested yet. Greater capacity of the ER32 might be very, very nice.

Thanks,Carl!

How accurate are the ER32 collets when the collet adapter is mounted on the Unimat 12mm threaded spindle?
Thanks,?
Dick

Hi Dick:
I think the cone surface was running within 0.001". For the work I do it is fine.?
