Vibration-Damped Turning Tool Holders

Vibration-Damped Turning Tool Holders for Stable, Productive Turning

Chatter shouldn’t force you to slow down. MAQ STMD™ turning tool holders automatically respond to changing vibration conditions, helping maintain stable cutting, improve surface finish, extend insert life, and increase productivity in demanding turning applications.

Available in a wide range of configurations, including compact 6 mm and 8 mm solutions, with reach options from 3×D to 15×D.












Is Vibration Limiting Your Turning Performance?

You may be losing productivity if:

· You reduce cutting speeds to avoid chatter
· Surface finish varies between parts
· Tool life is shorter than expected
· Operators frequently adjust cutting parameters
· Vibration limits productivity in demanding turning operations

THE TECHNOLOGY

Why Traditional Vibration-Damped Holders Reach Their Limits

Traditional vibration-damped tool holders are designed to perform best at a specific vibration frequency. As cutting conditions change, their damping performance can decrease.

MAQ’s patented STMD™ technology continuously adapts during machining, helping maintain stable cutting conditions across a wider range of applications.

By responding in real time, STMD™ reduces chatter, improves surface finish, and enables higher productivity without manual tuning or adjustments. The result is more stable machining across demanding turning applications, including long-overhang conditions where vibration can limit performance.
