What is quick change tool post?
The biggest one in a set is the quick change tool post, which is designed to replace the original 4-way tool post on your lathe. All other holders in this set will eventually be installed on the tool post.
How do I choose a quick change tool post?
Choosing the right quick change tool post for your lathe
If this number is not provided on your lathe or in its manual, it can be determined by doubling the measured distance from the center of the spindle to the top of the closest way. For example, if you measure 6″, then you have a 12″ lathe
What is single tool post?
The single tool post consists of a circular body 1 with a collar at one end and a threaded hole at the other. A vertical slot is provided in the body to accommodate the tool/tool holder. The body is slid through the square block 5, which is finally located in the T-slot, provided in the compound rest.
Why are quick change tool holders used?
Quick change, such as the QS™ holding system, maximizes active production time in sliding head machines compared to conventional shanks. The tool can be removed from the machine for insert indexing, and with the fast and accurate return, you can start running immediately, without the need for setting/measuring.
