QuickFlex System
In the past, acquiring live tooling after a major machine purchase has usually required a substantial additional investment, one that was often out of reach for companies that already stretched the budget to acquire the best possible machine tool. In today's competitive marketplace (especially in the midst of a still sluggish economy) this additional investment can be far worse than uncomfortable: in fact it causes many companies to make decisions to procure tooling far less than complimentary to their new machine investment. That's why, for leaders focused on conserving costs and improving productivity, WTO's innovative new system can be a game-changer, according to the company. QuickFlex, an innovative flexible tooling system for driven toolholders, greatly minimizes the initial out-of-pocket tooling costs. Plus, it dramatically reduces tool change time and provides greater long term flexibility.
