GPM CAPTO™ Turret Tool Discs - Available on New GPM Turrets

GPM CAPTO™ integrated turrets deliver a smarter, more rigid quick-change tooling solution by incorporating the CAPTO™ clamping system directly into the turret body. By replacing the factory turret and eliminating machine-specific clamping adaptations, this design maximizes stiffness, simplifies tooling, and improves overall machine efficiency. The result is faster changeovers, expanded machining capability, and a highly cost-effective upgrade for high-performance turning operations.

Key Advantages

• Exceptional rigidity and dampening for improved surface finish and tool life
• Through-tool coolant available at every station 
• Suitable for robotic auto part and tool changes  
• Allows high ROI rapid tool changes with presetting 
• Reduced carbide cost by reduced operator handling and insert drops

GPM CAPTO™ automation solutions are engineered to maximize uptime by seamlessly integrating automated part loading and rapid tool change capability into the machining process. Designed for high-mix and high-volume environments, the GPM CAPTO™ system ensures rigid, repeatable tool clamping while enabling fast, reliable automation. The result is reduced idle time, consistent part quality, and a scalable, cost-effective path to lights-out manufacturing.

Key Advantages

• Automated CAPTO™ tool holder changes with high repeatability
• Seamless integration with robotic and gantry part loading systems
• Reduced machine idle time and increased spindle utilization 
• Faster tool holder changeovers for high-mix manufacturing
• Facilitates automated part load/unload
• Lower overall operating costs
