Manufacturer of holemaking and finishing tooling systems, Allied Machine & Engineering, has announced the continued success of Wohlhaupter’s MVS modular connection system. As the original developer of modular tooling systems, Wohlhaupter's time-tested quality products are now part of Allied’s solutions for holemaking and finishing challenges.

Part of the Multibore collection, the MVS connection is a flexible system designed primarily for drilling and boring, with application possibilities in tapping, endmilling and light shell milling.

The MVS connection is a modular connection that allows for extended lengths or reduced diameters by using a series of components engineered for flexible adaptation to a manufacturing application. It comes in four sizes to accommodate the diameter range of the boring required: MVS 50-28, 63-36, 80-36, and 100-56. Operators can easily build and change tooling components and this flexibility lets the MVS system work accurately for almost any project needs.

The company complains that it has one of the strongest connections on the market, offering a mating and clamping draw force of approximately 1,900psi. This strength is provided by a three point triangular system. The pressure points are an equal 120° apart, creating high rigidity, high performance capability, and a total system accuracy of three microns.

The original concept for this connection was developed in 1973. The system holds tolerances of 0.002 microns ID to OD and a consistent 0.002 microns of parallelism between mating surfaces.
