Representative photographs of Mongtec driven tooling in this class — production units, not renderings. Shown as examples of the VDI30 family, not as a photograph of M7176 itself.
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.
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.
This holder carries a polygon shank coupling (PSC / ISO 26623) front end rather than a collet chuck, so cutting heads can be swapped without re-setting the holder in the turret.
Mongtec publishes tooling pages for these machines with a declared VDI30 turret. Confirming your model here does not confirm M7176 as the article number — that still comes from engineering.

M7176 is built for the VDI30 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.
M7176 is rated to 8,000 rpm with 32 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.
Yes. Mongtec supplies the full dimensioned drawing for M7176 by email once an enquiry is open, so the drawing is matched to your actual machine and turret configuration rather than a generic sheet.
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 M7176 are supplied by email once the enquiry is open.
