Tool schematic - It consists of a sleeve and a rack gear. XEBEC Brush Surface is not included.
Applicable equipment - The tool can be mounted on a machine which enables to stop and hold the sleeve at the fixed position.
How to use Self-Adjusting Sleeve
Mechanism - Predetermined brush length is automatically projected when the embedded side gear passes the rack gear which is mounted in a machine.
Operation Image
Pass the side gear of main body through the rack gear as shown above.
Mesh the side gear of main body and the rack gear.

How to use Floating Holders
Approach the Brush vertically when making it engaged with a workpiece. Don't contact the side of the Brush because it will cause damage to the bristles.
- Approach the tool from above to the workpiece while not in motion.
- Set the depth of cut and make the spring contracted.
- Rotate the tool and start feeding.
- Stop rotation and feeding of the tool when machining is completed.
- Remove the tool upward
