ABSTRACT:
A system for quickly changing tool blocks for a turning or other machine wherein the tool block is shifted between a set-up fixture and the turning machine by an appropriate means such as a robot arm. The tool block is provided with a vertical keyway and parallel horizontal dovetails utilized as reference surfaces for tool set-up and as clamping surfaces in the machine or mounting fixture. The block has appropriate clamping members to retain one or more turning tool bits in operative position for use in the machine.
