The DMG MORI CTX 2500 VDI40 uses a VDI40 Trifix turret interface. Mongtec Precision, a Taiwanese tooling brand headquartered in Taichung, Taiwan, supplies driven tool holders and static tooling on the open machine-side BMT and VDI (DIN 69880) standards used by this machine class. The exact Mongtec model for your machine configuration is confirmed by Mongtec engineering at RFQ, and every driven unit ships with an individual inspection report.

Listed from the Mongtec Tool Holders — VDI & BMT, Ver 2026.3 catalogue for the VDI40 turret interface. This is the published range for that interface size, not a confirmed fit for this specific machine configuration — Mongtec engineering verifies interface dimensions, clearance and drive coupling per machine at RFQ.

Representative photographs of Mongtec driven and static turret tooling in the VDI40 class. These are production units from the Mongtec range, not renderings — but they are shown as examples of the VDI40 product family, not as the confirmed article number for this machine. Mongtec engineering verifies the interface, clearance and correct article code for your specific machine at RFQ.
Mongtec supplies BMT and VDI (DIN 69880) driven tool holders and static tooling compatible with the DMG MORI turret platform. Interface: VDI40 Trifix. The exact configuration is confirmed by Mongtec engineering at RFQ.
For the open VDI shank itself, yes — VDI (DIN 69880) is an open machine-side standard, so sourcing the holder elsewhere does not require a turret modification. Note however that this machine's turret carries the proprietary Sauter TRIFIX® alignment interface, which Mongtec does not supply and does not claim compatibility with; suitability for a given station is confirmed by Mongtec engineering at RFQ. Mongtec also publishes cross-reference pages for WTO, Heimatec, EWS, Eppinger, BIG and other brands.
Lead time is quoted per order and ships from Taichung, Taiwan. Every Mongtec driven tool holder is inspected before shipment (runout, torque, balancing) and ships with an individual inspection report.

Machine builders regularly ship the same model with different turrets — station count, model suffix and the number of keys all change the mounting. The Hardinge Conquest H51 is BMT55 in the 12-station build and BMT45 in the 16-station build; the Okuma GENOS L300 M is VDI40, while the L300 MW/MYW uses a 65×73 mm bolt pattern. This is the single most common reason a driven tool holder arrives and will not bolt on. BMT bolt pattern reference — 38 patterns by machine builder →

Whether a holder mounts is decided by the turret bolt pattern and the drive coupling, not by the machine name alone. The types below are published by Mongtec for this interface; the exact article number is confirmed against the actual turret drawing at RFQ.
