Tornos Swiss GT13

With 30+ years of proven patented innovation, Air Turbine Live Tools® are built to last and are adaptable for any application on your Tornos swiss lathe. Completely sealed for wet environments and with outside diameters available at Ø 19.05, 20, 22 or 25 mm to fit into your boring bar holder.

Faster Production with a Finer Finish using High Speed Air Turbine Live Tools®

Operate With Governed High
Speed and No Duty Cycle

Air Turbine Live Tools® run at high fixed speeds and can operate on any Tornos swiss lathe without changing your RPM. Simply change your feed rate to get your desired chip load and get the proper surface footage for micro tooling. Maintain constant high speed in cut with the SFM required to optimize your micro tools. At 80,000 RPM Air Turbine Live Tools® increase feed rates 6 – 10x.

Speed up your off-center cuts and exponentially increase production from your lathes. You can machine titanium and steel – our patented governor increases air flow on demand keeping you at high speed on the toolpath.

800LT in a Tornos Swiss Lathe

No Heat, No Thermal Effects on Accuracy

Achieve finer finished surfaces with no feed lines with 2 μm precision. Our technology is very different from nominal high speed spindles that drop on tool engagement.

Easy Installation

We eliminate the control box, wiring, high frequency brushes and programming complexity. There’s no oil lubrication either. Quicker and simpler installation than traditional live tool spindles. Just drop Air Turbine Live Tools® into your Tornos boring bar holder and connect 90 psi/6.2 bar dry compressed air.
