INT-13-BT30 Vertex integrated self‑tightening drill chuck, BT‑30 taper, 50 mm

A INT-13-BT30 integrated, self‑tightening drill chuck for BT‑30 spindles, designed to provide secure tool retention and streamlined changeover in machining centres.

• Integrated self‑tightening mechanism
• BT‑30 taper compatibility
• 50 mm nominal diameter for secure grip
• Robust 1.4 kg construction

Increased productivity through dependable clamping

The integrated self‑tightening system converts spindle torque into enhanced clamping force, delivering consistent secure clamping and reducing the need for frequent retightening. This design shortens setup time and supports uninterrupted production runs, so machines spend more time cutting and less time being reset. The combination of BT‑30 interface and the compact 50 mm design makes the unit suitable for many machining applications where reliable chuck performance directly affects throughput and part quality.

Practical operation and maintenance advantages

The self‑tightening function means the chuck tightens automatically under spindle torque, improving grip as cutting forces rise; this leads to a measurable increase in operating confidence when dealing with varying feeds or intermittent loads. The component’s robust 1.4 kg construction and simplified geometry reduce points of wear, enabling straightforward routine checks and limited maintenance interventions. Clear design intent and accessible parts minimise downtime and support long service intervals for the workshop.

Integration with machines and everyday workflows

Engineered for standard BT‑30 toolholders, the chuck integrates smoothly into existing tool magazines and quick‑change systems. Its 50 mm nominal diameter provides a stable contact surface that helps keep runout within acceptable limits for general machining tasks, while the integrated layout avoids extra adapters that add bulk or imbalance. Supplied as part of Vertex’s tooling range, the product is positioned for both shopfloor use and industrial production where reliable, repeatable tool holding contributes to consistent component tolerances and process stability.

FAQ

What spindle taper does the chuck use?
The chuck uses a BT‑30 taper suitable for machines and toolholders specified for BT‑30 interfaces.

How does the self‑tightening mechanism work?
The self‑tightening design increases clamping force as spindle torque rises; the INT-13-BT30 uses this principle to improve grip during cutting.

What nominal diameter is intended for tool shanks?
The device features a 50 mm nominal diameter that provides a stable grip area for compatible tools.

Is the chuck suitable for high‑speed machining?
The chuck is designed for standard machining use with BT‑30 spindles; suitability for high‑speed applications depends on the machine and tooling combination.

How heavy is the chuck and what does that imply for balancing?
The unit weighs 1.4 kg; its compact mass and integrated design simplify balancing compared with larger adapter solutions.
