MAPAL has developed a new connection for replaceable head milling systems that makes tool changes quicker and easier. The interchangeable head is simply inserted, rotated 90 degrees and immediately locked in place, which is significantly more straightforward compared to traditional thread-based systems. The new BFS-system (Bayonet Fitting System) offers a very high stability and symmetrical force distribution, which increases tool life and machining quality.

 

The new replaceable head holders with extended cooling channels allow more efficient cooling directly at the cutting edges and much greater stability. The new tool holders provide process reliability even at high temperatures. With this connection, material consumption at the separation point is reduced by around 70 per cent compared to previous connections.
