Tooling & accessories, quoted with the machine.
A machine is only as productive as what holds the part and what holds the tool. LOMA and North Shore Industrial Tool work as one team: we quote rotary tables, trunnions, workholding, toolholding and cutting tools with any machine we sell, and we install rotaries and trunnions on machines already on your floor. One quote, one set of people, so it is all specified together.
Rotary tables & trunnions
Add the 4th or 5th axis to a machine you are buying from us, or to one already running. Samchully tables are matched to the control — table size, through-hole and servo motor — and the 3-axis GEN MILLs ship with 4th and 5th-axis wiring fitted from the factory, so a rotary is a plug-in rather than a retrofit.
Quoted on any machine we sell, so the axis count, table size and control are settled before the machine ships.
Supplied and installed in machines already on your floor — add the axis instead of the machine.
4th axis · Ø124–310 mmS seriesThe standard 4th-axis table: eleven models, pneumatic clamp, mounts vertical or horizontal.
Tilting 4th/5th · Ø130–310 mmTR seriesA compact tilting trunnion with hydraulic clamping on both axes — five sides in one clamping on a 3-axis VMC.
Compact tilting · Ø113–170 mmTM seriesSamchully’s compact tilting series. The TM-132FF is designed for compact tapping centers and dual-pallet machines; the TM-184FF runs a zero-backlash tilt axis.

Workholding
What holds the part decides how much of the machine you actually use — how much reach is left on a trunnion, and how long the spindle waits on a changeover.
5-axis · form-fitHWR SOLIDStamp form-fit clampingA stamping station presses a tooth contour into the blank outside the machine. The part clamps by form fit on a 3 mm edge, in a vise with almost no collision contour.
Compensating 4-jaw chuckHWR INOFlex® VLRound, cubic and irregular parts clamped concentric in one chuck, 160–1200 mm, with a low, weight-optimized body that leaves more of the trunnion’s rated load for the part.
Lathe power chucksSamchully JB & QJC chucksThe JB bores soft jaws on a built-in ring — no boring rings or slugs, just an Allen wrench, and the step can be automated. The QJC changes all three jaws in under a minute.
Toolholding
The holder decides what the tool does. Ten microns of runout at the nose puts every flute on a different depth of cut, and above 10,000 RPM balance stops being optional.
Swiss made since 1972REGO-FIX powRgrip & ERpowRgrip press-fit clamping: high holding force, vibration damping, no heat and a tool change in around ten seconds. Plus the ER collet system REGO-FIX invented, and micRun at under 3 µm system TIR.
Shrink fit · balance · presetHAIMER shrink fit & tool managementPower Clamp shrink machines and slim holders for 5-axis access, Safe-Lock pull-out protection, balancing and presetting, Tool Room Manager and the Automation Cube for tracked assemblies.
Cutting tools & the crib
NSHP carbide end mills, hundreds of premier lines, application engineering and managed inventory from North Shore Industrial Tool in Ipswich, MA — the tooling side of the same team, so the machine arrives with the tooling package already sorted.
Tooling & accessories, answered plainly.
Do you install rotary tables on machines you didn’t sell?
Do I deal with LOMA or NSIT?
Can a 3-axis machine become a 4 or 5-axis machine later?
