IntroductionThe Qtool 60 is a modular clamping device for medium-sized components (up to Ø 60 mm) with a work width of 100 mm. It uses an eccentric clamp for fast, reliable clamping and features an adjustable rear stop (50 mm) for reproducible positioning during cutting. A comprehensive jaw program and optional cross stop increase versatility.
Highlights- For medium components Ø 60 mm | Work width = 100 mm
- Eccentric clamp for rapid, strong clamping
- Adjustable rear stop (50 mm) for repeatable positioning
- Wide selection of jaws to fit various component geometries
- Optionally expandable with cross stop and additional accessories
Technical data (Qtool 60)Clamping range: 0–100 mm | Jaw width (standard): 70 mm | Jaw height (standard): 32 mm | Clamping force: approx. 2000 N
Compatibility (mounting options)Mounting via T-slot nut / spacing or via Easy plate (model dependent). Examples of direct mounting:

- Brillant 230: 12 mm / 75 mm
Clamping jaws for Qtool 60The modular jaw program allows tailoring the clamping device to the component shape and cutting task.
Round components- Prismatic or bevelled jaws provide precise, secure clamping
- Jaw geometry establishes a defined 3-point contact to prevent slipping
- Vertical clamping with cross prism is possible; components can be cut above the clamping device
Large components- High jaws increase the clamping surface for geometrically large parts
Clamping the cut-off side of the component- Slotted jaws can clamp the cut-off side to reduce burr formation
- Reduces the need for subsequent burr grinding before embedding
Available jaw types (selection)- Standard clamping jaw (included): Height 32 mm | Width 70 mm | Scope: 1 spare jaw
- Bevelled clamping jaw: Height 32 mm | Width 70 mm | 5° bevel for pressing down round material | For round components up to Ø 60 mm
- High clamping jaw: Height 60 mm | Width 70 mm | For large components | Scope: 2 jaws
- High slotted jaw: Height 60 mm | Width 100 mm | Sample remains clamped after cutting | Scope: 2 jaws
- Cross prism jaw: Height 32 mm | Width 70 mm | Horizontal/vertical prism (horizontal max Ø 18 mm, vertical max Ø 32 mm) | Scope: 1 jaw
- High slotted with prism: Height 60 mm | Width 100 mm | Horizontal prism max Ø 17 mm | Scope: 2 jaws (1 slotted smooth, 1 slotted with prism)
Workpiece stopFor repetitive cuts the adjustable stop ensures reproducible positioning:
- Mountable on Qtool 60 (also compatible with Qtool 80 / 80 VARIO left or right)
- Stop range up to 120 mm
