What MST does best.
Shrink-fit Holders
Maximum gripping force and minimal vibration. MST shrink-fit technology delivers unmatched runout accuracy and balance for the most demanding high-speed machining operations.
Runout Control
Engineered to deliver consistent sub-3μm runout accuracy — ensuring your tools run true, your surfaces come out clean, and tool life is maximised shift after shift.
High-Speed Balance
Precision-balanced systems designed for high-RPM stability up to 25,000 RPM. Eliminate vibration at speed to protect your spindle, tool, and workpiece simultaneously.
Slimline Extensions
Modular slim-line extension systems that provide deep-reach access without compromising rigidity — essential for complex mold and aerospace components.
