Abstract: A workpiece fixture for gear cutting machines and an interchangeable part for said workpiece fixture are adapted to each other. One end of the interchangeable part is used for fixation to the workpiece fixture and has on the one hand a face with at least one ramp extending in the circumferential direction relative to a rotation axis, and a locking element, the locking element cooperating with a locking element of the workpiece fixture so as to permit separation of the locked interchangeable part from the workpiece fixture only if a minimum force is overcome. The workpiece fixture has for its part in addition to the aforementioned locking element a surface formed cylindrically, at least in parts, relative to a rotation axis as a radial bearing surface for the interchangeable part, and a stop face or at least one radially protruding stop pin which cooperates axially with the ramp of the interchangeable part.
