Coromant Capto® Quick Change features
Coromant Capto was introduced in 1990 and since then there
have been no modifications to the coupling design. In 2008 it
became an ISO standard and Coromant Capto could also be
described as the standard for quick change on turning centers
now.
The cutting tool program has expanded over the years as well
as one new size added in 2010 – C10 for really heavy duty
applications. Below are some of key benefits of the system
which ensure that both your machine utilization and metal
cutting efficiency are maximized.
Segment clamping
The camshaft activated drawbar is used for both locking the
coupling, with segment clamping, and for pushing out the
cutting head. Only ½ a turn is needed to lock and unlock the
manual clamping unit. The camshaft has a self locking angle
and will not open during machining.
