Quarter Turn Adjustment Tool
Tools designed for high-precision machining and precise diameter compensation
The QT tool utilizes the functions of a general purpose machining center to achieve automatic compensation.
A unique mechanism that enables high-precision fine-tuning in ø2.5µm increments, therefore, ‘High productivity’, ‘high-precision machining’ and ‘reduced capital investment’.
