BS ISO 12164-2:2001 PDF

1   Scope This part of ISO 12164 specifies dimensions for receivers with taper and flange contact surfaces for hollow taper shanks in accordance with ISO 12164-1 to be applied on machine tools (e.g. turning machines, drilling machines, milling machines and grinding machines). A range of sizes is specified. This part of ISO 12164 specifies two styles of receiver. Style A is for automatic tool exchange and style C is for manual clamping which is achieved via holes in both the receiver and the tool shank. Torque is transmitted via the tail end of the shank through keys as well as friction.
