Schunk's Hydraulic Toolholder Features Imbalance Correction
Constructed of durable hardened tool steel, the Tendo Platinum V2 reportedly improves stability, stiffness and clamping force to support sustained accuracy throughout its life.

Constructed of durable hardened tool steel, the V2 reportedly improves stability, stiffness and clamping force to support sustained accuracy throughout its life.
The Tendo Original, with three rings, was developed in 1978 and was the first in the market to feature a run-out/repeat accuracy greater than or equal to 0.003, balance G2.5 25,000 rpm and no risk of damage when clamped without the tool. Schunk latest iteration of this technology is the Tendo Platinum V2.
