What Is Wrong With This Picture?


Injuries Like This Are Avoidable!


Slow Set-Up Procedures

ER Collets Take Time to Loosen,

Remove the Tool and Collet

Then Exchange with the Next

Collet and Tool. The Tool

Length Offset Must Be Set with

the Lathe Tool Pre-setter. A Radial Tool Can Take 20 –

30 Minutes to Install in the

Turret and Accurately Set Up.

Standard Radial Alignment is

Time Consuming and Must Be

Done with Every Tool Change

by Tightening and Loosening

Two Set Screws.
