REGO-FIX, a Swiss toolholding company and inventor of the standard-setting ER collet, has partnered with tool measuring and management solution company Omega TMM for the creation of ORION powered by REGO-FIX – a tool measuring machine using REGO-FIX’s powRgrip® toolholding system with Omega TMM’s presetting technology.
ORION powered by REGO-FIX was created based on customer requirements that demanded reliable, innovative and precise tooling to ensure the best and most satisfying experience possible with an easy-to-use and robust tooling system.
The REGO-FIX powRgrip® toolholding system creates simple, heatless toolsetting in under 10 seconds using a hydraulic press to insert special shallow-tapered collets into holders with a matching taper. Its superior clamping force, vibration damping and precision with toolholder-to-collet and collet-to-tool shank interfaces provide extreme accuracy and high-quality tooling from high-speed milling and drilling to coolant-free cutting.
REGO-FIX is a Swiss manufacturer of premium toolholding systems from toolholders and clamping collets to clamping nuts and accessories. Inventor of the original ER collet, REGO-FIX helps manufacturers achieve toolholding excellence in fast-paced industries including aerospace, automotive, computers, communications, consumer electronics, heavy duty equipment and medical devices. From its U.S. headquarters in Whitestown, Indiana, the company provides sales and support to customers across North America.
Omega TMM is the only U.S. manufacturer of tool presetters in the world and exports tool measuring machines and solutions to countries across the globe from their U.S. headquarters in Fairport, New York. In addition, the company’s wholly owned foreign enterprise is located in Nanjing, China, which offers sales and service support for the Asian marketplace.
“We are excited to partner with Omega TMM in creating a unique and easy-to-use presetter that utilizes the innovative powRgrip® toolholding system,” said Bill Obras, General Manager Americas at REGO-FIX. “Our powRgrip® delivers fast, high-quality precision with adjustable tooling that goes hand-in-hand with Omega TMM’s cutting-edge presetting technology.”
