heimatec.Capto? is an additional modular quick-change tool system that greatly increases the efficiency of setup and change times. heimatec.Capto? is extremely flexible and offers wide-ranging modularity for static and live tools along with a high availability of the interchangeable inserts for turning machines and processing centers. The heimatec.Capto? program offers not just a wide range of standard tools but also numerous specific tool holders that are designed for machine optimization. The modular quick-change system heimatec.Capto? is distinguished by a compact design with a short projection length, which makes it possible to achieve high cutting speeds while also reaching the best surface qualities. heimatec uses exclusively original Capto? components from Sandvik.

heimatec has developed the easy-quick HT series particularly for the quick change of static and live tools. The system enables the presetting of various interchangeable inserts with conventional tool holders outside of the machine tool. The machine operator can then insert these easily, safely and quickly with one hand whenever needed. The machine?s non-productive times are greatly reduced by easy-quick HT. Tool changes faster by seconds with heimatec.easy-quick HT

Wherever large series have to be manufactured with the highest precision and efficiency, automatic lathes are used. heimatec has developed a wide range of static and live tools specifically coordinated for automatic lathes, which stands out with its long service life and highest quality of workmanship. heimatec relies on optimal spindle-bearing technology and ground gear components here. The housing and spindles also have the highest possible rigidity. heimatec.SwissTooling ? the complete tooling program for swiss type lathes

...for economical turning As one of the leading manufacturers of precision tools, heimatec offers an enormous selection of static tool holders for turning centers. The range includes boring bar holders, turning tool holders, bar pullers and cut-off holders with standard VDI and BMT interfaces

The live standard tools from heimatec are generally delivered with the u-tec® changing system with a collet chuck according to DIN 6499, which makes it possible to use the live tools even without additional tool adapters. The flexible tool changing system heimatec.utec ® comes with a cylindrical polygon integrated into the tool spindle located behind the collet cone. This unique feature guarantees a solid torque transmission during the machining process. heimatec.u-tec® is a flexible system for collet chuck holders according to DIN 6499.
