EGS Ejection Guide Sleeve Blanks
Due to the extreme opening capability of our overgrip collets , workpiece ejection must be very reliable to prevent a part from becoming stuck in the slots of the collet. Therefore we have developed the EGS Ejection Guide Sleeve blank to prevent parts from falling inside the collet instead of ejecting into the part catcher.

The EGS blank can be bored, drilled or machined to fit and support the part and guide it for reliable ejection into the part catcher.
You will need to drill the EGS through to fit your particular part and setup. We suggest using programmed cycle stops while validating the production setup to make sure part ejection is reliable. |

The Microconic over-grip collet is extremely rigid and precise. If it closes onto a part wrapped with chips the collet may be over-stressed and break. It is critical that the workpiece be free of wrapped chips. High pressure coolant is recommended to blast away chips.
There are many other techniques that can be applied to keep the part clear of chips, such as chipbreaker inserts, speed/feed optimization, chipbreaker G-code cycles and cutter path retracing, amongst others.
It bears repeating that we suggest using programmed cycle stops while validating the production setup so the operator can confirm the part is clear. Once chip control is proven reliable that won't be necessary.
