Radial tool holder B3 DIN 69880 VDI40 — right‑handed, short (TECWERK)

A radial tool holder B3 DIN 69880 VDI40 crafted for short, right‑handed over‑head turret applications with external coolant supply, ideal for compact milling stations and CNC turret lathes

• Form B3, short design for compact setups
• Right‑hand orientation for over‑head machining
• External coolant supply for direct lubrication

Precision and repeatability for turret-mounted tooling

The VDI40 interface and DIN 69880 conformity ensure consistent seating and repeatable concentricity when mounted in turret stations, which translates into reliable machining tolerances and fewer rejects. The axial and radial design parameters minimise runout and vibration during high‑speed indexing, so cycle times remain stable. This precision component is particularly relevant for shops requiring tight positional accuracy in multi‑tool turning and milling operations.

Compact layout that reduces set‑up time and improves coolant delivery

Designed as a short radial holder in Form B3, the geometry reduces tool overhang while providing an external coolant channel for direct lubricant delivery to the cutter. Reduced overhang lowers bending moments and extends cutter life, while the targeted coolant path helps evacuate chips and maintain cutting edge temperature, improving surface finish and productivity. The compact configuration supports denser tool layouts on the turret, enabling more tools per station and fewer turret changes.

Practical installation and compatibility benefits

The component's dimensions (e.g. h1 25 mm) and standardised VDI40 mounting simplify selection and integration into existing systems. The right‑hand over‑head orientation suits machining centres and turret lathes configured for external‑tool access, and the short length shortens tool projection, helping to avoid collisions in confined set‑ups. Where machine operators require predictable behaviour under cutting forces, this holder offers a conservative, mechanical solution that prioritises stability and serviceability.

Operational advantages and workshop value

Using a standardised radial holder like this one reduces inventory complexity, as the VDI40/DIN 69880 interface is widely adopted in industry, enabling cross‑compatibility with many turrets and adapters. The combination of compact form, direct coolant feed and repeatable mounting lowers total operating cost by reducing tool wear and machine downtime. For procurement and maintenance teams, the unit supports a pragmatic approach to tooling standardisation without compromising on performance.

FAQ

What machines is this radial tool holder compatible with?
The radial tool holder B3 DIN 69880 VDI40 is compatible with turret lathes and machining centres that accept VDI40 interfaces and are configured for right‑hand, over‑head radial tooling.

Does the tool holder provide coolant to the cutting edge?
Yes, the unit features an external coolant feed that channels lubricant directly towards the cutter, improving chip evacuation and tool life.

How does the short Form B3 benefit workshop efficiency?
The short design reduces tool overhang, lowers bending moments and enables denser tool layouts on the turret, which can shorten changeover frequency and improve throughput.
