The iSwiss Corporation launches its latest insert system, the Height Adjustable Backworking Holder X Type. The Height Adjustable Backworking Holder X Type offers precise coolant delivery to the cutting area up to 130 bars (1885 psi). It has been redesigned to point the coolant flow directly to the tip of the tool, which is designed to aid in evacuating the heat from the cutting area and breaking the chips. The system is built more rigidly to eliminate vibrations (up to 80%), which is said to help increase tool life and to achieve better surface finish. These holders are intended for Star, Citizen, Tornos, Mazak, Tsugami, Hanwha, Traub and Manurhin machines.

The Height Adjustable Backworking Holder X Type has interchangeable heads for turning, grooving, threading, drilling, reaming and boring operations using the same base shank, which helps reduce set up time. The adjustable holders are suitable for machines with no Y-axis on the sub side, allowing users to physically adjust the head center line to the subspindle position, which is meant to eliminate issues with machine alignment. Machines with Y-axis for backworking can also use these holders as modular tool holders and utilize all variety of ISO standard tool geometries and solutions of top tooling manufacturers.
