Toolholder Increases Productivity, Decreases Downtime

Modern Industries presents the Spin-Select multi-pocket selectable toolholder created to increase productivity and consistency by decreasing downtime for tool and insert setups and change-overs. The tool’s design enables quick indexing between its five pockets with a ¼ turn of a socket head cap screw. According to the company, each pocket can house a different tool, enabling quick changes between operations without having to requalify the tools. Designed for lathes with a turret or tool post, the Spin-Select supports improved throughput on machining tasks such as heavy roughing, harder material removal and short runs.

Features include increased tool capacity with five different inserts on one turret location, the capacity to change inserts and stage offline, and through-tool coolant. The toolholder is machined from wrought bar stock with no castings or powdered metal parts.
