What M5236 does on the machine

The driven spindle points along the Z axis, parallel to the lathe spindle. This is the configuration for face drilling, face tapping and end milling on the part face.

Round body — a slimmer envelope that clears tight turret pockets and neighbouring stations.

Through-coolant. Coolant is routed inside the holder and delivered at the cutting edge through the collet and tool. For deep-hole drilling and tapping in stainless or titanium this is usually the difference between a tool that survives the cycle and one that does not.

Gear ratio 1:1 — tool spindle speed equals turret drive speed. The direct relationship makes speeds and feeds straightforward to calculate from the machine's live-tool rating.

Do not order against the label alone. “VDI50” fixes the shank per DIN 69880, but pocket depth, clamping system and drive coupling still vary between machine builders. Send Mongtec your machine model and a photograph of the turret face — engineering checks M5236 against the actual turret drawing before anything is quoted. That check is free and takes one email.

Machines with a VDI50 turret

Mongtec publishes tooling pages for these machines with a declared VDI50 turret. Confirming your model here does not confirm M5236 as the article number — that still comes from engineering.

Frequently asked

What machines does the Mongtec M5236 fit?

M5236 is built for the VDI50 turret interface. Because VDI shank dimensions follow DIN 69880, but turret pocket depth, clamping system and drive coupling still vary between machine builders. Send Mongtec your machine model and a photo of the turret face and engineering confirms the fit before anything is quoted.

What speed and torque can M5236 run?

M5236 is rated to 4,000 rpm with 100 Nm of torque at a 1:1 drive ratio. The usable figure is whichever is lower: this rating or your machine's live-tool drive rating.

What collet does M5236 take?

M5236 takes ER40 collets. Collets and nuts are supplied separately; specify the shank diameters you intend to run and Mongtec quotes the collet set with the holder.

Is a dimensioned drawing available for M5236?

Yes. Mongtec supplies the full dimensioned drawing for M5236 by email once an enquiry is open, so the drawing is matched to your actual machine and turret configuration rather than a generic sheet.

Get M5236 quoted

Send the machine model, the turret station you want to use and the tools you intend to run. Anything you do not know, Mongtec works out from the machine model — an incomplete enquiry is still worth sending. Dimensioned drawings for M5236 are supplied by email once the enquiry is open.
