We are trading our Haas HS1-RP for a Haas EC-400 with probe and full fourth axis. I am wondering if we can have the tapers on the Cat 40 tools off the HS1 reground. I know it would change the gage length. We never put old tools in a new spindle. But we have a lot to tools for the HS1. Other wise we will buy a new tool package. If anyone needs a HS1-RP. I think the HFO would be glad to deal on it. Last edited by JWK42; 09-15-2010 at 09:25 AM. Reason: added last line |

| Why wouldn't you use the tooling you have without regrinding. Shops move tools around to different machines all the time? I would think that regrinding would cause more problems than just using the tool holders unless they are spalled or warn out. JMHQ Lowell |

| Yes I'd also have to wonder at regrinding the tapers and getting them perfectly concentric with the tool holding bore. I suppose that the original manufacturer has a perfect spindle to hold the taper shank while the working end of the toolholder is finish ground. But working in reverse would be an expensive PITA.
