Product catalog summary
About BENZ Solidfix®
Benz Solidfix® is a modular quick change system designed for high precision and stability. It combines taper concentricity with a large planar surface to ensure maximum stability and rigidity, suitable for milling operations. The system supports high torque transmission and high RPMs, facilitated by a central clamping mechanism that minimizes lateral forces.

Technical Data
The system offers various sizes (S1 to S5) with corresponding wrench sizes and VDI combinations. The transmittable torque ranges from 25 Nm to 400 Nm.

Product Benefits
  • Compact design with a large planar contact surface.
  • High rigidity and torque transmission.
  • High speed capability with balancing-neutral design.
  • High precision with concentricity < 5 µm on 30 mm and high repeatability.
  • Quick tool change in less than 20 seconds with one-hand operation.
  • Safety features include a safety bayonet and self-locking clamp function.


Tool Change Procedure
  1. Familiarize with the system and ensure the operation unit is in a loose position.
  2. Insert the adapter into the tool spindle, secured by a safety mechanism.
  3. Clamp the tool using a standard hex key by turning the clamping screw 180 degrees.
  4. Loosen and change the adapter by unlocking with a hex key and turning the adapter 90 degrees.


Application Samples
Examples include tool changes for angle heads and CNC turrets using the BENZ Solidfix® system.

Tool Adapters
The document provides detailed technical data for various tool adapters, including collet chucks, Weldon shanks, and shrink fit chucks. Each adapter type is listed with order numbers, sizes, and dimensions.

Accessories
Additional components such as reducing sleeves, blanks, and closing plugs are available, with specifications provided for each.

MODULAR QUICK CHANGE SYSTEM BENZ SOLIDFIX® ►► SYSTEM DESIGN Tool spindle BENZ Solidfix® / Modular Quick Change System Eccentric bolt with sight mark Retaining screw Clamping ring Adapter with tool ►► ABOUT BENZ SOLIDFIX® FIELD OF APPLICATIONS User friendly, stable and very precise By combining taper concentricity with no backlash with an extremely large planar surface, combined with high torque, BENZ Solidfix® offers a maximum in stability and rigidity, which is even capable of withstanding the demands of milling. The high torque transmission and the highest possible rpms also stress the effectiveness. This is supported by a special clamping mechanism which works centrally, without lateral forces, which in combination with the compact, highly precise components used achieves optimal values for concentricity, rigidity and accuracy in repeatability. Because of its compact design the system is ideal for tools with internal cooling. SYSTEM OVERVIEW *transmittable torque of interface ** clamping system also for comparable BMT/CDI tools 10

MODULAR QUICK CHANGE SYSTEM BENZ SOLIDFIX® ►► TOOL CHANGE ►► Step 1: Familiarize yourself with the system In order to change an adapter in the angle head/live tool the operation unit needs to be in a loose position. BENZ Solidfix® / Modular Quick Change System Clamped position: Marking is sitting on open lock Marking is sitting on closed lock ►► Step 2: Inserting the adapter Insert the adapter into the tool spindle. The adapter cannot fall out due to a special safety mechanism which holds the tool in place, even if not clamped yet. This prevents injuries during set up of the tools in the machine....
