A Multi Bore Collet is a special-purpose Workholding collet designed with two or more bores to hold multiple components simultaneously in a single clamping cycle.
It is widely used in CNC lathes, SPM machines, transfer lines, and automation setups to increase productivity and reduce cycle time.
Multi bore collets are ideal for small, identical components produced in high volumes.
Key Features
• Holds multiple parts at one time
• Higher productivity & reduced cycle time
• Uniform gripping on all components
• Secure clamping with consistent accuracy
• Suitable for automation & mass production
• Custom bore layout as per job requirement
