Small Part Machining
QS™ holding system

A Quick Start to best performance in Citizen, Star, Tsugami, Tornos and Nexturn sliding head machines.

Reduced downtime
Single screw release of holder for quick and easy tool changes and set ups
Insert edge position set up immediately on placement of holder in tool post, less adjustment

Improved accuracy
Secure insert edge position for improved repeatability, no movement against workpiece

Ease of use
Kits can be quickly mounted on Citizen, Star, Tsugami, Tornos and Nexturn machines with no reconstruction.
Spring loaded clamping system eliminates problems of dropping the tool holder into the machine
No diameter adjustment – close repeatability tolerance for insert edge position


The QS holding system now with high precision coolant


QS high precision combines the quick change capability of the QS holding system with
high precision coolant. The result is problem-free machining and improved component quality in the most demanding, long-chipping materials.

Application
  • Turning, parting and grooving of small components
  • Citizen, Star, Nexturn sliding head machines
  • For best results in long-chipping materials

Easy to update
  • Easy to modify existing QS systems with the new coolant function (just change the stops)
