KM Micro™
and KM Mini™ A Revolution in Small
Parts Machining!
A smaller, more compact version of the
internationally renowned KM™ system.
• Inserts can be changed outside the machine.
• Reduce the time required for an insert exchange by up to 60%.
• Slash machine set-up time by an incredible 80%.
• Test cuts are minimized or even no longer required.
• Premeasured tools can be installed in the machine.

 The KM Micro™ and KM Mini™ quick-change tooling system utilizes face and
taper contact designs. KM Micro is great for use with fixed and sliding headstock
machines and universal lathes.
KM Mini is designed for lathes up to 30 horsepower (22kW). They are perfect
solutions for small parts machining and the Swiss-style machine tool industry.

KM Micro™
and KM Mini™ A Change
for the Better

Change the cutting unit, not the insert!

The quick-change cutting heads reduce indexing and set-up
times on machines by up to 66%.

 Compact
The unique flange attachment system enables an additional
one to three tool spaces to be used on a single tool block.
This considerably increases the tool capacity by up to three
additional tools per tool block.
A further advantage is the high level of stability of the block,
as rigidity is greatly improved during deep tool turning
operations by removing the tool slots.
