ER Collet Essentials. Do You Know? - Haas Automation Tip of the Day

Whether you’re a beginning or advanced machinist, you’ve probably wondered more than once if you’re using the correct collet. With so many to choose from - and often confusing sizes on the collets - it’s hard to know if you’re using the right one. In this valuable Tip of the Day, Mark looks at each type of collet, and explains how and when to use each one.

Wow, learned more in 20 minutes here than in hours in the classroom. Great job guys!

[@desert_jin6281]

Kent VanderVelden You said it. Very interesting and useful video.

[@mikesinyourtv]

Very well said!!! I agree!

[@christopherclark8454]

Kent VanderVelden idk my teacher breaks it down well I need a physical teacher hands on he breaks the video down

[@toninica]

The best video what i see ever

[@testingbeta7169]

perhaps pay attention in class once

[@A1BASE]

I have no idea how I found my way to this particular corner of the internet but man, this is how educational videos on youtube should be done! Even if I have no use for the information in it that doesn't detract from the face it's fantastically presented and clear as glass. Top job!

[@samterian7694]

i used collets for a looong time but I learned a lot in a few minutes, its like a deaf person hearing music for the first time, thanks a lot.

[@travisborges1048]

new into cnc you answered every single question i had thank you!

[@johnnelson8612]

Mark has done it again! So much GREAT information. Thanks Mark.

[@TUCOtheratt]

So much to learn... I'll have to watch this several times.

[@Raptorman0909]

This is precisely the kind of content we love from you guys. Very well done and useful information.

[@madmagyver9981]

Thank you. Centering tools with ultimate holding power. Satisfying machinist ocd. This is an amazing service you guys provide with passion. Not everyone gets to hang out with old school machinists. Thanks again

[@Icutmetal]

Ultimate holding power sure won’t come from ER collets.

[@Icutmetal]

@Maciej Jan Długosz Not true; standard shrink fit holders are much stronger than ER collets, but are absolutely not the option with the strongest gripping force. Heavy-wall shrink holders are a big step up, but for “ultimate holding power,” there needs to be a mechanical connection like a “Safe Lock” groove in a shrink holder or a Weldon shank. Even a milling chuck can offer more grip force than standard profile shrink fit holders. Not a darn thing wrong with ER collet chucks; every shop should have some in my opinion, but they’re not the best option for any one thing.

[@madmagyver9981]

@Maciej Jan Długosz collets can achieve more clamping than shrink fit. Shrink fit only allows for a few thousands. Thus limiting actual holding force. Collets use a screw and wedge combination to achieve ultimate clamping force, do the math.

[@madmagyver9981]

@Maciej Jan Długosz actually. If you couple shrink fit tool holders with loctite 680, no amount of physical force will move the tool providing the tool shank doesn't exceed 450 degrees Fahrenheit to release the adhesive.

[@danienathancooper]

Thanks for this. What a great video explaining all the collets. KZbin needs more great videos like this.

[@muddbutter]

I’ve been machining for 8 years now. Never ran a Haas, but man…I absolutely love your videos. Such high quality, and taught very well. Please keep up the good work!

[@attilakovacs5803]

Great video, thank you! I absolutely love your thoughtful, no compromise approach, how you consider every small detail.👍❤️

[@georgesalaz8223]

I love this channel. Thanks for all the wonderful, useful information. Merry Christmas.

[@macstmanj3]

I really appreciate you guys naming the products that you're using

[@firoxlion]

Fantastic video, great explanation and also some very hands-on shop advise, like rusted collets! Also for me it had a great balance between some jokes to keep it light and interesting, without overdoing it.

[@rajkumarukkuturi7115]

Good explanation. Really easy to understand what you are speaking (good and clear English). Many thanks for sharing.

[@user-uv3mc9hi4o]

yes! I'm studying English and Haas's videos helping me with it

[@literoadie3502]

GREAT VIDEO! Please do more of these educational videos, good to learn from real experts!

[@xavierkaes79]

That was one hell of a clarifying video ! Don't you guys ever get tired doing that kinda stuff.

[@oddjobbob8742]

This was so informative. Thank you for taking the time to produce this KZbin.

[@josephelwell2591]

I am going to make this required viewing for each of the operators here at my shop. Great information. You even taught me a thing or two!

[@haasautomation]

Joseph Elwell - Thanks for comment. We loved making this video! It was fun, with all the props. It went longer than we’d have liked, but what can you do, there was a ton of things to talk about. Thanks again. - Mark, Haas Tip-of-the-day

[@GavinBath]

Awesome to see the video! We were lucky enough to meet Mark and see him working on this video when we did the HAAS factory tour recently. Keep up the great work!

[@ScottMoyse]

Gavin Bath exactly what I wanted to say

[@SpencerWebb]

Mark, this was an outstandingly informative and well-produced video. Good job!

[@Spickygaming]

All i want to know is how you survived getting run over by that forklift at 7:10 ?

[@Thefreakyfreek]

It was his third clone

[@Spickygaming]

@@NeilAbalone Hahahah, good one :)

[@Phantomthecat]

Interesting even that the forklifts and pedestrians share the same path - would never be allowed where I work.

[@jfan4reva]

He called for it to take him back to the machine room. Used the forkLyft app on his phone.

[@fredericksmith4482]

@@Phantomthecat lol my dude u union?

[@justinpham4327]

Love those video from Haas, valuable videos for all machinist.

[@maxhammontree3169]

Mark, you are brilliant!! I wish I had you as a mentor.

[@MakeItWithCalvin]

REALLY well done, so many little tricks to saving your tooling and making it run more accurately. I can't say how many times I have seen folks at the machining school i went to break all those rules and then some... makes me cringe thinking about it!

[@satibel]

when you don't have the right collet, use a smaller one and a tap with the --hammer-- screwdriver on the end of the tool will do, right?

[@tivnator]

Wow thank you so much. I definitely didn't know anything about ER collets as I thought I knew. Great work!!

[@KasimAljabri]

Thanks Mark for you time.

[@lfoggy3061]

These videos are superb. Well done and thank you.

[@beachboardfan9544]

YESSSS!!! More of this! More of the fundamentals PLEASE!

[@shubhamnishad5926]

Thanks Mark for such an usefull piece of information !!!!! KEEP POSTING SUCH VIDEOS GREAT JOB Guyzz

[@Thepriest39]

Great video. I don’t have a HAAS but this video will help out any machinist.

[@jimsvideos7201]

Good on you for the evolution of your lighting setup for these videos.

[@BrilliantDesignOnline]

Mark, thanks for schooling me. Extremely valuable and appreciated with your (and your T2 cyborg unit) classic style.

[@edwardhorton7029]

awsome video. im just learning and this the best video ive seen.

[@bobd.]

This was very informative for someone new to ER collets. Thank you.

[@ScottMoyse]

This is right up there with the TCP video. Top notch.

[@bbrown9763]

I've never seen a CNC irl, but I watched this entire video because it's so well done and interesting.

[@AERuffy]

Just getting into machining, learned a lot from this video. Thanks

[@pravinnathan4159]

Awesome .... Thanks for the explanation and it's wonderful

[@larrypalmer7136]

Great information presented exceptional well, thank you very much.

[@oldbloke135]

This is an outstanding video. I'm only a "hobbyist" but I feel a lot more knowledgeable than I did twenty minutes ago and I've already watched four other videos supposedly about this topic! PS. I love the vending machine, brilliant.

[@James-fs4rn]

great info. videos are always well formatted and presentation is great too. thank you!

[@QuebecoisSti]

Thank you so much HAAS for those great infos. I learned alot. Maybe one day I will have my own from you guys :)

I have decided this was the best video in the history of the universe. HOW DID YOU DO THAT THING LIKE IDENTICAL TWINS AT 8 MINUTES??!

[@haasautomation]

Thanks Jeff. I sent your comment on to the Editor who produced this video, Tyler. He said that next time there would be 4 Marks, and would say nothing further. Thanks for the comment! - Mark, Haas Tip-of-the-day

I didn't know about the seal caps. I've got to get some of those! Not as much for the TSC, but to stop the cast iron building up and setting up where it becomes a pain to clean out.

[@fernandomolano7712]

Great, great video..great information...tks..! :)

[@Xynudu]

Good comprehensive video. The only thing he maybe should have mentioned was regarding the collet nut thread fit. This has to be close fitting for good accuracy. Worn or loose thread fit is a no no.

[@cahman8]

We have 2 kinds of TSC ER collets, the ones with the rubber seals as showed here and some without rubber seals where the slots are shorter. I've found that the ones with rubber seals have to be on size or the tool is likely to slip. Also the rubber seals will eventually blow out.

[@craazyy22]

Good job on the video :D

[@TheJiminiflix]

This guy is nuts about his nuts. Fantastic information and I don't even do this work.

[@alex_yates]

Love these videos. Could you please tell me which Castrol Rustilo you use? There seem to be about 20 types...

[@dalenaegeli3484]

Great video with a lot of useful information. What left me empty though was there really wasn't an explanation to WHY you don't put a larger tool in a collet than what it is made for other than you will damage it. Some people need a graphic or something to see why to really understand it and/or believe it. Thanks for all the great work you do.
