Abstract
An ultrasonic machining device 10 is attached to a movable carriage 3, and has a borehole 11 to whose free end a differential screw 14 is threaded. To clamp a tool 20, first the device is returned to a neutral position whereat a wrench 25, which is mounted stationarily in a frame 2, engages the differential screw which rests on a shoulder of the wrench with low prestress. The wrench is then rotated until the screw projects a specific amount beyond the end of the device. The tool is then threaded onto the screw until it abuts the device 10, and finally the screw is tightened by a pneumatic cylinder 32.
