Newbie- TC22 ATC Inserts

[twodlee]

I am looking for BT40 inserts for the auto tool changer on a Torq-cut 22 and haven't had much luck. I have found someone selling CAT40 but not BT40.

Does anyone know if you can have both types in the carousel, just being careful to put the right tool in the right holder? Are parts of the spindle different between CAT40 and BT40.

I guess I should also ask if there is an obvious place to get the inserts that I should check out?

Thanks,
Brian

Are we talking retention knobs or tool carousel segments?
The inside of the spindle is different and the tool segments are different.
Thus they cannot be interchanged.

Thanks George for the quick reply. It is the carousel segments I need. I realize now that the tool changer offset setting would also be different between the 2.

I guess I will have to keep looking for the BT40 inserts.

Thanks,
Brian
