The iSwiss Corp.’s Height Adjustable Backworking Holder X Type is said to offer precise coolant delivery to the cutting area up to 130 bars (1885 psi). It has been redesigned to point the coolant flow directly to the tip of the tool, which is designed to aid in evacuating the heat from the cutting area and breaking the chips. The system is built more rigidly to eliminate vibrations (up to 80%), which is said to help increase tool life and to achieve better surface finish. These holders are intended for Star, Citizen, Tornos, Mazak, Tsugami, Hanwha, Traub and Manurhin machines.

The backworking holder has interchangeable heads for turning, grooving, threading, drilling, reaming and boring operations using the same base shank, which helps reduce setup time. The adjustable holders are suitable for machines with no Y-axis on the sub side, enabling users to physically adjust the head center line to the subspindle position, which is meant to eliminate issues with machine alignment. Machines with Y-axis for backworking can also use these holders as modular toolholders, and utilize all variety of ISO standard tool geometries and solutions of top tooling manufacturers.
