WhizAdapt PZ©turn – Quick change holders

MAS Tools GmbH, inventors of the PZ©turn Quick change holders for Swiss type lathes have outdone themselves with this extremely stable and durable quick change system. The tapered polygon gives very good support and repeatability. The heads are always clamped back into the center of the taper, by an angled M5x0,5 screw pushing the head into the center of the holder. Heads are available with most WhizCut insert pockets, all come with coolant through preparation. Shanks are now available in 10 mm, 12 mm, 1/2”, 5/8” and 16 mm.

Lifting productivity with WhizAdapt – Range benefits

  • More stability, less vibrations: The PZ©turn has a very precise positioning due to a tapered polygon and the clamp screw only pushes the head into the holder and not down.
  • Quicker setups: The same shank can be used for many different heads and applications making your setups not only faster but a lot more flexible.
  • Multiple coolant ports: 3 coolant ports makes it possible to connect the shank to any machine set up.
  • Maximum coolant efficiency: The WhizAdapt is combined with our WhizHip coolant nozzles giving the best possible coolant to the cutting edge.
  • Extended range upon request: A full range of ISO pockets and other heads are available upon request.
  • Quick change: Insert indexing within 30 seconds.
