Spindle Options

Increase your profits and engraving quality with the split collet spindle (see fig 7.14). Designed

to be extremely accurate and durable, the collet spindle is simple to use. This collet retracts

around the cutter gripping it at the bottom, while firmly holding on the top. By holding the cutter

in two places the cutter is virtually vibration-free and nearly eliminates play and runout. The split

collet spindle can engrave with excellent clarity and resolution while averaging a longer product

life than any other spindle.

The collet spindle accepts both top loaded and bottom loaded cutters, including 2" short shank

cutters such as drill bits, router bits, dremel tools etc. Should you ever want your split collet

spindle to act like a standard spindle, simply install our solid collet in the spindle (available

separately).

Diamond Drag Adapters

Using your plastic cutters to engrave metal can seriously damage them. There is a better option;

Western offers high-quality diamond drag adapters. Don’t burn out your bearings on a job that

can be done just as easily as cutting plastic. The diamond drag adapter engraves virtually all-

metallic surfaces, at high resolution and high speed. The results achieved with a diamond drag

adapter can be even more amazing when used with double- and triple-line fonts.
