Haas TM Cat 40 Tool Rack

I needed more easily accessible storage for Cat 40 tool holders so I designed this rack that holds 16 tools and fits on the front side of the slots present on the rear chip guards located to the left or right of the spindle on Haas TM series mills.

The body of the rack is 12 gauge aluminum for strength and corrosion resistance. The top is angled 15 degrees for easy access to all tools and covered with high density polyethylene to prevent damage to retention knobs and tapers. The front and sides are full length to protect retention knobs and tapers from stray chips that could potentially stick to tools, and to allow the rack to be used as stand-alone storage on a bench is desired.

I'm looking at getting the fabricated parts for these racks made by a local shop and can take preliminary reservations for anyone else that is interested in purchasing. The final price will be affected by lot size, but should be less than commercially available alternatives.

Please contact me directly via e-mail if interested.
