Exsys Tool has expanded its line of Preci-Flex modular tooling systems to include a 10,000-rpm, 1:1-ratio rotary tool for Mazak Quick Turn and QTU-series turning centers. The faster toolholders are said to match the processing speed of optional 10,000-rpm machine spindles to boost productivity and achieve quality surface finishes.

Manufactured by Eppinger, the line of tooling systems offers flexibility and precision. The short, compact design with monoblock housing provides high torque transmission and rigidity, resulting in increased machining accuracy and improved productivity. Additionally, its conical and flat-face planar interface enables the use of either an adapter or a standard ER collet. This enables the mounting of collets, end mill holders, expanding collet chucks and shrink-fit tooling on a single base holder.

The tooling system also features a compensating clutch with a floating coupling between turret drive motor tangs and toolholders that automatically compensates for misalignments. The resulting high-precision alignment reduces vibration and tool chatter, which in turn makes for longer tool life and better surface finishes.
