RedLine Tools

This live tool will fit the Haas BMT65 turret. Live tools are dynamic tools that drive a cutting tool (endmill, threadmill, drill, tap) that is secured with a collet or other coupling on the live tool spindle. They are mounted to a turret and are actuated by the CNC control spindle. Live tools add the milling component to the lathe machine increasing productivity saving you time and money. This eliminates the hassle of moving your parts to the mill after performing all your turning steps in the lathe. Our live tools come in radial or axial configurations and are available for VDI or BMT65 stations to accommodate a wide variety of turrets and machines. RedLine Tools feature quality components proudly manufactured in the USA. Our live tools feature an oversized flange integral to the spindle, providing chip protection for the front seal and bearings. A precise run-out of .002 mm provides improved accuracy and smooth performance. We are driven to provide our customers with results that work.
