Reduce tool-change and indexing time in your swiss machining operations

Insert indexing and chips can bring your high-volume, small-part turning operations on Swiss-style machines to an immediate halt. Constrictive work spaces and multiple tools situated in extremely close proximity to one another make insert indexing difficult, time consuming and inefficient. At the same time, poor chip evacuation leads to reduced tool life for toolholders and cutting inserts.

When insert indexing and chip evacuation is a problem

Insert indexing and chips can bring your high-volume, small-part turning operations on Swiss-style machines to an immediate halt. Constrictive work spaces and multiple tools situated in extremely close proximity to one another make insert indexing difficult, time consuming and inefficient. At the same time, poor chip evacuation leads to reduced tool life for toolholders and cutting inserts.

Eliminate inefficient indexing

Tight machine work spaces make accessing and removing screws very difficult. Because of its modular design, the Modular QC Toolholder eliminates the difficulty of indexing small inserts as the system allows you to change the insert outside the machine which reduces the risk of very small screws and inserts dropping down into the machine.

Keep chips from stopping your production

Chips can hinder unmanned small-part operations on Swiss-style machines and continuously cause production stoppages. Efficiently evacuate chips with Seco Jetstream Tooling® and Seco Jetstream Tooling® Duo technologies incorporated into the Seco Modular QC Toolholder.

Your challenges:

Erratic chip behaviour hinders your unmanned small-part machining operations and causes production stoppages
Tight spacing between tools and limited access in your Swiss-style machine make insert indexing difficult and time consuming. Assembling coolant hoses proves cumbersome in the limited space

Your benefits:

Repeatability due to tight tolerances on the interface
Secure single lock system makes it easy to use
Predictability tool life with Seco Jetstream Tooling®
Multiple heads fit on a single shank offering versatility
Precision insert positioning due to patented carbide pin pocket design
Productivity increased due to less machine down time between tool changes

The Seco Solutions:

For maximum tool life and highly efficient chip control, Seco Jetstream Tooling® and Seco Jetstream Tooling® Duo technologies built into the Modular QC Toolholder offer direct coolant precisely to the cutting zone
With the Modular QC Toolholder, you can quickly remove both cutting head and insert as one assembly for fast and easy indexing outside of the machine
