Big Daishowa has announced a new addition to the Mega Double Power Chuck lineup for heavy-duty end milling: the Mega 12DS. Designed for trochoidal milling with anti-vibration end mills, the Mega 12DS series features high rigidity and gripping strength and is available in BBT30/40, HSK-A, C for metric and BCV40 for imperial.

The Mega Double Power Chuck system features an expanded contact diameter of the nut to the flange, which provides high rigidity — as if the chuck and nut were one solid piece — which is said to provide heavy duty machining without chatter.

The Mega Series high-speed milling chucks are precision ground and balanced, with all components specifically designed for high-speed applications. Like the full Mega Double Power Chuck lineup, the new Mega 12DS series enables max of 30,000 rpm.

A through-coolant supply enables improved surface finish, smoother chip evacuation, extended tool life and better cooling and lubrication of tools.
