What M6036 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.

Square body — the most rigid of the axial layouts and the usual first choice where turret clearance allows it.

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 M6036 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 M6036 as the article number — that still comes from engineering.

Frequently asked

What machines does the Mongtec M6036 fit?

M6036 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 M6036 run?

M6036 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 M6036 take?

M6036 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 M6036?

Yes. Mongtec supplies the full dimensioned drawing for M6036 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 M6036 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 M6036 are supplied by email once the enquiry is open.
