The ABS tool-holding system offers a secure, adaptable connection for machining applications, featuring a unique radial clamping mechanism for improved stability. Available in various configurations (N, T, E1, and E2), ABS provides high repeatability (2-3µm), broad diameter compatibility (φ20-φ200), and efficient coolant flow. Its modular design enables easy tool head adjustments and compatibility with multiple tool-holding styles, such as VGI, HSK, SK, BT, ER, Weldon, etc.

In addition to machining parameters, workpiece material, and tool material, tool geometry plays a significant role in determining tool life. Tool geometry parameters are divided into macro and micro structures.
