SS-ISO 26623-1:2008
Polygonal taper interface with flange contact surface - Part 1: Dimensions and designation of shanks (ISO 26623-1:2008, IDT) (Swedish Standard)
This part of ISO 26623 specifies the dimensions for polygonal taper interface with flange contact surface: polygon-shanks for automatic and manual tool exchange to be applied on machine tools (e.g. turning machines, drilling machines, milling machines and turn/milling centres, as well as grinding machines). A range of shank sizes is specified.
These shanks incorporate a grooved flange to enable automatic tool exchange. The clamping can be realized by a circular groove using clamping segments or internal screw threads using centre-bolts.
The torque is transmitted by form lock (polygon).
