Kress High Speed Spindles
With the take over of Kress by AMB, prices have changed again, and the current exchange rate does not help with keeping a competitive price, so we have decided to stop stocking the spindles, and just keep stock of consumables such as collets and brushes for quicker local deliver. DamenCNC use UPS for delivery and so it's only an extra day to get the kit from Holland anyway..
In addition to a more accessible speed control, the business end also includes a spindle lock to remove the need for juggling two spanners to tighten and loosen the collet. Although you still need three hands to hold the cutter, spindle lock and collet spanner. The new unit still uses the same collets, which while a little more difficult to extract from the nut, provide an accurate location with negligible run-out. We will be supplying the unit with an 8mm collet, which is inculded as standard. 1/4", 6mm and 3mm collets are also available along with additional clamping nuts so that you can leave the collet and nut assembled for easier tool changes. Notes on tightening the collets are provided here.
