Background Information:
The Capto system was invented by Sandvik in 1990 and utilizes a high-precision tapered polygonal form. This provides highly accurate rotational indexing and zero-slip torque transmission; excellent for both milling and turning applications. Note that non-Capto 'PSC or PSK - Polygonal Shank Compatible' holders can be used with Capto interfaces.
Standard Capto interface.
The Weldon interface utilizes a straight bore and one or more setscrews to grip the tool shank, and was invented circa 1918 by Carl A. Bergstrom in Cleveland, USA. Although seemingly crude and archaic, this style of tool holder interface often outperforms more modern systems when it comes to extremely heavy machining loads, and cannot be beat for simplicity.
Company History:
The beginning of what has become Rego-Fix was Fritz Weber founding "Fritz Weber Feinmechanik und Werkzeugbau" in Reigoldswil, Switzerland in 1950. His first serially manufactured product was a broomholder; a humble origin that has shaped the company's history for many years. By 1955 the company employed 15 people and began to venture into toolmaking, and by 1970 also had become a successful brand in cheese cutting, as well as yoghurt and gas bottling machines. In 1972 Rego-Fix invented the ER machine collet system, the innovation which would make the company world-renown. Interestingly, the mechanism for the ER collet system had been used in broom handles from the beginning, but the application to machine tools was much more important. Tool holding technology was continuously developed by the company since that moment, and has produced an additional revolutionary system, PowRgrip. Today Rego-Fix is recognized at the top level of premium brands in the machining industry.
